This van is beautiful and well thought out. The attention to detail! How nice it would be to come in from the outdoors and relax in this stunning, zen beauty
thank you!!
Yes, I agree with you
One of my favorite
Thank you so much!!
Oh wow, yes 🙌
The craftsmanship in this is unmatched! ❤ I love it.
Glad to hear that
Patrick, thank you so much for putting this video together! We love your channel and the support means the world to us.
Looking forward to having you on the channel again you guys are onto something really good
C'mon this is very n-i-c-e. 💜 exactly like a luxury apartment. You met the goal perfectly. Love all of it but also the speaker that you can pull out from the cabinet was a great thought item. 🎶
Thank you so much!!
Thank you so much!!
Great tour, Beautiful build. Fun to see an out of state builder sharing their work on here! Thanks for sharing!!
Thank you Paige!!
Glad you enjoyed it
Gorgeous build! I love the materials that you used and the relaxing aesthetic of the whole design. The shower door is amazing as well as the pasture door. Really a nice job on this one! Loved the intro and the camera shots as well!
Thank you so much! I’ve been wanting to do an intro like that for two years and their location and there’s build it fit perfectly with the song I picked out
Thank you so so much Lisa!
Wonderful! The cabinetry is exquisite, and I love the black on black exterior. Thanks for this awesome tour.
Thank you for the positive feedback Suzanne!
I agree with you, Suzanne
Partition door and the walnut finish so nice
thank you so much!
Yeah, it really does give it a nice touch
Very cool. 👍
Thanks 👍
Nice build fellas, thanks for sharing Patrick.
So happy to finally have them on the channel. I could never get out there to film but we worked it out. They filmed it. I edited it and it came out great I think.
Since we sleep for 8 hours and are awake for 16, it makes sense to have the dining area where the bed is. The 3 fold table gives options and added openness if needed. Nice van build.
Awesome van,love the build. Great design! Great attention to detail!!
Thanks a bunch!
Thank you Sharon!
Fantastic intro!
I'm glad you like it
The only thing I would do different is have the toilet pull out into the shower. Im saving this for when I want to have a van built
Good luck keeping the water out.
Great layout, lighting might be to bright at night over couches if no dimmers. I would consider amber light over couches or perhaps a small partition between sink/ counters and couches with reading lights and usb outlets. And heat controls.
Appreciate the feedback
Beautiful and such well-done video James and Max! You totally captured why I’ve been obsessed about designing my dream van for the past few years! Love the craftsmanship and thoughtful design and would love to see more of your work and talk about working together! Just a heads up to Patrick too that the link doesn’t work:( So, please let me know how I can get in touch! Again, your short film was magical to watch and great delivery by you guys!
We crashed their site. I think it exceeded the bandwidth with how many clicks I pushed to it.
Thank you so much! It should be working now :)
Love it
Beautiful place
Beautiful build... absolutely bespoke. I would love an awning, and it would need some racks for the back. But those can be added later. The only thing I didn't like was I do like a table option up front with two more seats for other passengers. But for a single or couple, this van is great.
Appreciate the feedback it’s nice to know what people are looking for
Great music.
Thanks
What is the name of the song. The intro.
Es impresionante y preciosa ❤
Did I get it right that the toilet slides into the space in the kitchen instead the bathroom??? For a very small van conversion that represents basically a one-room situation it might be acceptable. But this Sprinter is quite large.
Nevertheless, I like the interior aesthetics - reminds of some diners (in a positive way).
Water from the shower will get into the slide and you will have issues. And a lot of time the shower turns into a closet.
@@bindingcurvethis was a big consideration for us. Another factor was that the shower pan has a 3” lip on it and it would raise the toilet height to at least 5” taller than it would be on the floor. It made for feet not touching the ground unless you’re 6’ plus. There is the option to keep the toilet in the shower and have the privacy, and then move it whenever you decide to shower. It fits with plenty of room!
I love the design, and the wood is so rich and warm. I like the door separating the cab from the back. Does it lock?
It doesn’t lock but does have magnets to keep it in place
I think their website is working now!
Yes 🙌
I’m wondering about snow storms and having the solar panels up top. How do you keep power if the panels get covered with snow when it snows storms for several days nonstop?
Like everything with solar, you need to wipe them off if they are covered in snow. They're made of glass so the snow slides off easily. This van also has an alternator charger that charges the battery while the car is on.
Very nice cabinetry. I see his heat supply but I wonder where his return is.
@@rockymountainbuildsyes the heater is in the other room I get that so how is it recirculating the air from the van area with the door closed. That’s what I don’t understand.
It pulls air from the cabin area but there is a gap under the partition door that would allow it to pull air from the living area as well. Either way it is effective at keeping the interior warm!@@michaelscarfi3196
I believe the return is the gap underneath the partition wall between the cab area, but I might be wrong
Such a beautiful van! The wood is gorgeous and the slate bathroom 🤌 But Aw man, the toilet should slide into the bathroom, not the kitchen/walkway 🥴 It’s right there at that wall. Weird design choice.
the link is dead 😢
Oops, hang tight we just crashed their site. I guess they don’t have the higher bandwidth plan. I’m sure they’ll fix it tomorrow.
Should be working now!
Love the intro and the build is fantastic, though I would prefer some kind of external water fill. The hose fill requires the rear to be open, which would mean losing all your heat to fill or added labor to fill a jug from a hose to gravity fill (and still losing some heat going in and out with a jug or bucket).
Fortunately with the 35 gallon tank you shouldn't need to fill very often and run into this predicament! We could certainly build one that way for you if you were interested. Thanks for the feedback!
Thank you very much for the feedback. Their intention was to make it as winter capable as possible so no external water connections, but I do understand your point.
Why 3/4 inch wood. Very sturdy, but what's the weight difference from 5/8s.
A lot of Van builders are using light ply, which is three-quarter inch and it’s about 30% less than store-bought three-quarter inch ply
😳🤔😊👍👍👍👍
Still prefer toilet to slide in and out into shower stall....nice van, cha-ching😅
I agree. Not liking the potty in the walk way. Slide it into the shower stall.
Thank you very much for the feedback. I appreciate it.
Two problems with that. First a lot of the time the shower stall ends up becoming storage. Second, ensuring water does not get into the slide and causing all kinds of problems. It's a VAN and if you are that squeamish, there are all kinds of small C class campers (there is NO such thing as a B+) that may be a better fit.
Even the very best of marriages, no one wants to poop in front of the other.@@bindingcurve
The funny thing is it's almost setup for the toilet to slide in/out of the shower...just make a hole and rotate the slide. 😂
Great build. Handsome host. Yet $200K is the sale price! That's a big NOPE - totally price gauging. About $125K for the build alone. Unreal. This has become so greedy & opportunistic.
Thanks for looking
Looks like a public toilet throughout. Perfect for when shit's everywhere.
