About this van:
Laura & Nicolas' van is just incredible. I know I've said this a few times, but again this is one of the best campervan conversions I've seen - it's definitely up there with the best of the best! The interior design and finish is immaculate, topped off by a beautiful, uniquely finished wet-room with a stunning, white real stone-like finish.

First conversion I've seen that looks like a luxury studio apt. on a smaller scale. The decoration and choice of materials are so stylish and unexpected. Beautiful job as well achieving such functionality in a small space. Love how all the consistent details enhance the beauty, from the cabinets, shower, and walls. The solar is a much needed addition as well. Overall, the conversion is a unique and lovely end result.

By having everything white, and even putting white doors on the garage and dish washer, you give your small space an external consistency that leads to a sense of internal peace. If anything is out of place, it’s easy see and put back into its place to return to balance. The left garage is brilliant to store those things you don’t need to see. How is it when it’s rainy and cold? Where do you put muddy boots and wet gear? How do you heat the sleeping area? Did I miss that? We saw how you can escape to the cab, but how do you get from the cab to the living space without tracking in outside dirt?

It is not my taste, but I must say - it's absolutely on an other level. Room planning makes sense and is finely balanced, the materials and the way to use and combine them create an atmosphere rather of a very comfortable hotel room. The edgeless ceiling is a clever idea to hide the limited space in a van. Big compliment to the makers. Avoid muddy regions! =)

I absolutely love this van layout, especially closing off the wall behind the cab to make usable counter space. Too many van conversions don't have a place to sit and eat at a table, or they have to switch the bed between table/bed mode. The extra counter space lets you have both. Genius. Best layout I have seen so far.

@@MoesBusLife Yeah the first thought that came to mind. How black will that turn in how many days, then how the hell would you clean it. With that said. Easy fix. Go back sand it smooth and put a nice tile over it. Beautiful van though and beautiful woman. I'll take the woman then but a Fithwheel that looks like a mansion. She could have everything she wants. The entire bedroom with the 100ft of doors, cabinets and hanging closets. Lol
Aesthetics 10/10 Originality 10/10 I love the idea of moving the kitchen faucet & the bathroom in the that corner sacrifising a pass through but gaining so much space inside. Promasters are smaller than sprinters and transits so its nothing short of amazing that u have a fixed bed,bathroom, kitchen & a dinning area.
Beautiful van!! I’ve been binge watching conversions all day and you are the first one that needed smoothies and espresso, like I would...it’s a must. I also noticed the Olaplex, it’s great stuff. I loved that the garage is finished with doors, this is the first conversion I saw that was finished with garage doors. Again, gorgeous conversion, hope y’all are enjoying it.
Love the bed and curtains with the back door open. So pretty. My husband and I converted a bus but it's not that fancy looking but we do have a wood burning stove., and we used a boat hatch to make a skylight for the emergency hatch.

By a huge margin, the nicest campervan I have ever seen!!! Absolutely gorgeous!! Well done you guys!!!!
I love looking at van designs, and this one is one of the nicest I have seen. Most vans have the converting seat/table/bed behind the driver’s seat, but fewer have the bathroom there. Still fewer have the sink behind the seats. Very clever use of space. Also keeping the floor to ceiling door up front gives great relief in the feeling of space and light when moving around inside. The fixtures are few, but the best! 👍👍👍
This van is very functional and beautiful. I love the white and accent colors. Very elegant.
Stunning van conversion. I love how you have treated it as a beautiful ‘home’ on wheels and created a space of luxury. Who says you can’t have a luxurious van to travel in! Beautiful 😍
Your van is super luxurious wow...really nice colors and accessories. So calming, and flows so well together. Thanks for sharing this with us, really sweet living space.

This is one of the most beautiful van conversions I’ve seen. ❤️❤️
Very beautifully done. Looks great and you encluded everything important.
Loved the sink at the entrance and the cane webbing, that must make all the cupboards a lot lighter. Wasn't so keen on the finish in the shower room.
1 of the BEST, well-planned, executed van builds. Love many features about it - shower window - entrance cupboard - escape via art.
I am obsessed with this build! It has a functional kitchen, good size shower, a place to sit and table and has a bed in one place. I love it very much and its Clea and so organised
This is by far my favorite van build yet!
I loved your van guys! Loved the gold accents on white because they're very Euro classic! Oh, and the espresso maker is outstanding! I think everything in your van is beautifully crafted, very chic looking, and refreshingly light and airy! The only thing that I find a bit dangerous is the pair of sconces because they're too bulky and you may end up hitting your head with them or just breaking them up! Another tiny little thing is that I feel that there should be sliding panels to separate the living area from the bed. I know it's a small space but sliding panels are just about 1"x 2 thick wide which would give a sense of privacy and cozyness to the sleeping area! Thanks for sharing!
Very beautiful and I like the design. The one thing I would question is the rough shower walls only because I can envision mold and mildew eventually collecting in the rough surface or at least making it harder to really keep clean. I don't see many conversions that has the door to the cab unopen, but glad you have the escape hatch in place. It is very cute however!
One of my favorite van builds. You had me at the secret escape hatch. I love all the beautiful details you have incorporated. So rich and clean feeling.

I've seen probably hundreds of self-build and pro-build vans, but this is far-and-away the most stylish one! It looks like a Tuscan cabin married to a beach cottage. I don't even care that it's not my style; I love it! Well done!
I LOVE the ( all white everywhere ) aesthetic and find it incredibly WISE - BECAUSE it "tricks" the mind and makes it "feel" spacious ( non claustrophobic ).
I really like the vibe of this van! Had I been able to make one adjustment I would've made it so that the toilet would have been pulled out into the 'shower space' from underneath the seat as I feel like those pumps could've also fit elsewhere. That way you wouldn't have to take out your toilet when you need to shower. But this is a personal preference.

I said the same thing. I sent my dad this video and said this is exactly what i had always described, besides the toilet not rolling away
Been watching roughly 30 plus conversations but this one would be my choice if living off grid. The fact that they have the full on bathroom at the front just makes it feel like a home. Many vans will have a kitchen space for brushing your teeth but this one has an actual bathroom sink with mirror and plug for drying hair! They managed to fit a full sized shower room, bathroom sink, kitchen, dining table, and bed without compromising anything! Nothing has to be fiddled with when using (like making your bed, hiding front windows) which can be stressful to do daily. I may have misheard, but they said they fit a 70L freshwater and grey water tank? Insane! And the power bank is plenty to run all heavy appliances. Storage also looked plentiful, and somehow they were able to still have a garage! Last but not least the design is just beautiful. Makes the space feel less like a van and more of a designer's home. I would buy this in a heartbeat if I had the money🥺
I've been into Van's since 1977 and I've seen one or two in my time from hippie to today and all in the middle. And that's alot of years. Your DIY. would have got 1st place in them all Wow. I'll give you a high Ten. 😎

A very nice conversion job on a fab van. I have never seen one like that before. The extra long wheelbase really does make a heck of a difference! I hope that you enjoy your adventures in your lovely van 🙂🙂 x
Nate you find some of the neatest videos! Love them!
It is all so beautiful, designed so well. A small suggestion- please plug any small appliances in only when using. Leaving any appliance with a heating coil plugged in unattended can (and eventually will) cause a fire and will result in the loss of everything you have. I worked many years for a big home insurance company and our biggest claim was from small appliances left plugged in and the heating coil had shorted out, exploded and burned the entire house down. People came home from work to find their homes completely gone. Our biggest claims came from coffee machines and air fryers- even electric stoves can and do explode and burn everything into oblivion. Please don't leave anything (not needed or being used) plugged in at night and while driving. Plus, your appliances will last longer. Constant electricity fed through the wires and the heating coil will wear out any small appliance very quickly.
I love disguising the escape hatch with a piece of art! The skylight so you can see the stars at night is so aesthetic too.
Your van is beautiful! Love the colors and simplicity🤗🙏

Big like 👍. The van looks so amazing 👏. Super clean 👌 and organized. Looks like a luxury apartment 👌
This seems to be a build that sacrifices function for decor and what’s prettiest. The backsplash not going up to the cabinets and how it just stops in the middle of the kitchen area would drive me bonkers. How do the both of you get your legs under the table and work at the same time with that tiny table? Practically, how in the world do you read those crucial monitor meters when they’re hidden away in a bottom cabinet? At 63, I would have to have a lot of adrenaline in my veins to go through that escape hatch ( and by the way, nothing says, “welcome” like someone pointing a gun 🥺), and with all the white, my new hobby would be cleaning…all the time! Hubby, you are so loving to agree to a bad that’s too short for you! Not for me, but I am super happy that y’all are happy with this van, and your fit and finish are incredible! Happy travels!
