Perfect bus. Not too big, not too small, sooo cozy.

This is a good book. Does provide a step by step introduction to how to build things kzread.infoUgkxhgbP-6hUnXu_QRaoHgLztgsI0YF3HqR0 , also does offer some steps. Includes pictures to give you ideas for layouts and such. If you are looking for a guide, this is not exactly what you want. But if you are trying to familiarize yourself with the way that pole barn building and other out buildings, are made, then this will work just as you need it to. A few things in this book are a barn (of course), detached garage, storage building, and coops.

All the light in there is extraordinary; you see these Vans where they spend a fortune and its all dark / no windows. Amazing space; brilliant idea on the shuttle van. That is quite the conversion; who would want a Mercedes sprinter after seeing your conversion??? amazing!

Probably the most beautiful interior I've ever seen on a bus! She's nailed the aesthetic

She is a genius! I love all of the sneaky storage.

This is one of the best tiny homes I’ve ever seen! So thoughtfully-designed

Imagine the freedom she has...she can travel anywhere witha cozy comfortable environment...I love this concept...to travel with family in a cozy environment...

As a young woman, a van with 360 degrees of windows would be dangerous with so many predators out there. She's golden as long as she stays in a warm climate. She'd never make it in the upper half of the US without serious insulation and heating capabilities.

WHAT?? those folding chairs are brilliant. And love the space you made for them, The wrap around ceiling storage is great too. Both with access within and above. LEDs make everything better. such great work. congrats.

Her story is so transformational and I love the way she started a business out of an Idea.

If I were going on the road, I'm convinced a shuttle bus would be the way for me. Yours is gorgeous and I love the windows/light. I also love your decorative style. It's so great you have this as a business too. Good success!

Wow, I can't believe she built it by herself. I agree, shuttle bus size is a perfect size for motorhome. It will be my future motorhome.

Right, daddy is a contractor. So she has a mentor and access to tools and workspace. Free parking in her parents driveway, then a friends. Not exactly living on the streets or she would ditch all those windows and go more stealth. Since living in a vehicle isn't legal really in CA. What powers the refrigerator (I think it's annoying you can only reach fridge from on top with empty counters). How does she heat water for sink and shower? Grey water tank size and location? What is under the bed? Where are batteries and controllers for solar? Where are her TOOLS? fire extinguisherr? Heat and A/C? fan?

She did a nice job. I have seen this bus when she done her own tour.

There are lots of comments about the toilet (or lack of). The beauty of your own conversion design is you only have to include what's important to you. I love this van & immediately saw a place for a toilet with the present design. We all have a vision or idea of what's relaxing & comfortable. I could not spend even a week without big windows but others may find storage space to be a bigger priority. This is one of the best conversion I've seen.

This is the cutest and most simplest space. So beautiful because its girly. Love it.

What a beautiful human being. I really liked her vibe. Hope I can meet someone like her some day.

Nothing said about water tanks, size, how she heats water for shower, electricity, solar panels. All the practical things. So many windows that people can look in from the outside. Maybe she only stays in San Diego and doesn't need to deal with bad weather, rain, cold, snow. With less windows she'd have more options on walls for storage, pantry, shelves, and insulation. What about heat and A/C?. She must have grey water tank for shower and sink but it's not mentioned. Seems odd to leave that out if her business is designing these. And she is tiny, only 5'2". How tall is the ceiling? Could a normal person, or a tall large man fit in the shower or the bed? What is under the bed?

This was my first time ever watching a tiny house video and wow am I impressed. Didn’t expect to see such creativity and great use of space.

Love the shuttle bus route to tiny living! This is my idea of the ultimate bus build, which I plan to start on in the next couple of years. I'm taking care of my elderly parents atm & hope to have a shuttle bus conversion to move into when they pass on to the next life.

What a great idea! I have seen the school bus conversions but never wanted to drive something that big. This is beautiful!

I think much of the success of this project is due to the fact that Gloria is an architect (maybe not accredited but architect nonetheless). The space is without climate control owing to its home in the San Diego area. Bottom line for me is she did a great job and has excellent ability to transform "tiny" spaces. As the father of a like-aged young woman I say, Mazel tov, Gloria, Mom & Dad must be super proud.

One could easily start spartan with just a bed and a few basics and gradually modify it to your needs as time and money allowed. If you see how people live in their cars with very little, take some of their ideas and build on them. Take advantage of friends' showers or Planet fitness or do "spit baths" as my mother used to call them. With just a rudimentary battery, inverter and solar panel, one could have basic lights, and electronics, and one of those $24 butane cooktops for cooking.

A lovely simple little home on wheels. Like these shorter ones. Nice. Cozy.

Thank you for Sharing i loved it. She is such an amazing designer. love the white interior which made the bus feel very spacy.

It's visually beautiful and spacious. If one could get all the essentials in there, you'd really have something. In my climate, I'd need windowless, tons of insulation, a woodstove, bathroom facilities and solar panels or spend the winter in a warmer location.

You know these tiny homes anywhere are pretty cool up front. She had me thinking this is something I'd definitely like to do until the bathroom situation came up and then I was like "NOPE."

This space looks so comfortable and it fits everything you would need perfectly. I love all the windows and the insulated window coverings.

I trust Gloria Merrick of Lavender Moon Spaces! It's my opinion she is a genius and will start a revolution through her company!

This is one of my favorites. I always come back to this one.

Do like that style of bus, all the windows are great, up there with the best I have seen.

Hands down the best one I've seen yet.

Love this shuttle bus. It's well and beautiful decorated.

If you're going to sell your TINY HOME, I would LOVE TO BUY IT. !!!!!!!!!! It's such a BEAUTIFUL home!!!!!!!! You have every reason to open your own business, cause you do GREAT WORK!!!!!!!

Loved this one!. She was lucky having a contractor dad who apprenticed her.. I have a Super Tiny Home at chosen times.. a converted (no construction) Honda Odyssey 2002.. and lived in it in San Diego.. a year back . Parked anywhere. I do not have a kitchen or shower.. but belong to the Y.. and can eat salads, snacks. I'll check into an AirBnB now and then, to cook.. Thanks for your good work!

This bus is gorgeous and so is the owner. Love her personality!!! 😍😍🤗

This would be perfect for me. Love the decor and layout. Best one I have seen for something I want so far.

What an awesome build!

She did an excellent job

Gorgeous! The ONLY thing I would change would be the cabinet handles; my son cut his lip badly on those exact same style when he was little; if you take a fall or even bump them, they're quite sharp. If I wasn't already pretty ensconced in a house and was considering mobile housing again, I'd hire her in a New York Second.

@napamoonlight9997

signalfire6 Yes, while the handles are a style choice and compliment the sconces and the faucet, thereby tying the look together, something less proud (and it seems, less sharp) would eek out just a bit more space while utilizing that kitchen area. But I think we can all agree that the whole look is stunning. Well done.

This person is incredible.

She's so beautiful and so smart 😍 I'm in love

WOW!!! 😯 I am SO in AWE! I am SO loving this! I've gone from wanting a tiny house, to a skoolie, to a van, to a shuttle bus!!! Wow... I'm kicking 60 in the butt & my mom will be 86 soon. I'm an only child & mom worries what will become of me when she's gone. I've wanted to go tiny for some time anyway, but when it's just me, I'd like to go tiny via vehicle. You know, I think I'd like to get started before it's just me, as mom loves the idea of going tiny. I decided against a skoolie because I wanted something I could work on myself if necessary, & the engine on a shuttle is far smaller. So shuttle bus it is. My biggest requirement is handicapped-accessible & room for a cat or 2! 😊 Wow... Thanks for posting this!!!
