DIY Camper Van: Unique Shower & Elevator Bed

[@saintejeannedarc9460]

I had to stop and comment, that this man is only 22 and he's on his 2nd brilliant and elegant build. The creativity of people just stuns and impresses me at times.

[@abbeyroadstudios4999]

I agree, the guy's a genius.

[@brianmabin5947]

A stunning build with unique euro ideas throughout . This gentleman is so well mannered, spoken and intelligent for such a young man, very impressive to watch.

[@nicolettedequintal6935]

Amazing Van and Amazing young man

I agree!!

Agreed

[@SHENA75051]

So well spoken and super handsome. Very mature for 22 years old

[@markangelobravo8949]

Wow! One of the best builds! You have a shower, an elevator bed, etc. the van looked small from the outside, and yet you managed to fit all the necessities.

[@lifecoachthirl]

Totally Agree

[@skywalker6648]

True and the warm tones are nice. Though I didn't see a fridge and garage space seemed tiny compared to some others.

[@lucasravizza]

Thank you!

[@chocpch]

The fact that Lucas is 22 is crazy to me. He gives 30+ vibes with his looks & overall demeanor in this video... in a good way.

[@ericalampley480]

This is the most unique van build I've seen. I get tired of the vans cause they're usually the same but the view in, from the outside in the beginning, kept me around. Glad I stayed!

[@avacadomangobanana2588]

I went to school with this guy and saw his OG van build he’s gotten pretty crafty with these builds

[@Lynn-oe7qb]

Agreed 💯

[@catwoman2582]

Absolutely gorgeous design and so well executed! 😊

[@ericac.4316]

22 years old and Extremely Brilliant 👏👏👏

[@freetobeme6013]

What a clever and utterly polite young man. He’s a talented van builder who created something special. I wish him all the luck and safety in the world. 😊

[@Jax_20389off]

yup he did a good job except the toilet bowl, that toilet bowl should be designed insde the shower room.

[@jaytabac6525]

@@Jax_20389off you are so silly.

[@Bot-503]

@@Jax_20389offagreed. The toilet definitely could have been inside the shower room

[@Jax_20389off]

@@jaytabac6525 you are the silly one, you wanna let all those fecal and urine particle contaminate the whole van? stupid fucking shit

[@kimanderson7311]

Did I miss where the fridge was? Is there no fridge? Apart from that aspect, I absolutely love this build!!

[@louise7552]

Fridge is under the cooktop.

[@raysun2be]

What a great unique build! That walk-through shower/bulkhead/storage area is excellent. Wild to think 7 people lived out of it for 25 days. Thanks for the tour!

[@cblazgoogle3844]

Yeah.. I wanted to know where everybody slept.. maybe they had tents too??

[@maha77]

Seriously love this guy and his passion for adventure, reminds me of myself when I was his age, decades ago. I've been everywhere and seen and done it all. Once you do that, the only journey of adventure left is inward 🙏

[@nodanceswithwolves8425]

This is just amazing. As a female, I have 2have a shower in whatever I build. And yours is the 1st I have seen where this is a priority. Didn't think it was possible in a van build, but you just showed it is not only possible, but actually beautiful. Well done!

[@linusnanor1531]

There's a lady with a shower in her closet in her van. Check her out. Just search "van build shower in closet" on KZbin. You'll be even more amazed.

[@heart-and-seoul]

Finally someone did the walk through shower! I’ve always thought about how I would lay out my van if I had one, and that is what I always thought about, but not how I would actually shape it. Nice build!

[@indiramichaelahealey5156]

I love the look. The shower is great. I personally would change the toilet so it's next to the shower and could slide into the bathroom when needed.

[@denisemiller4964]

That’s a great idea.

[@helenburrows3585]

Yes. I would've put a fridge there. It's a stunning build, but he hasn't left much room for food/products

[@bethshoaf]

He is a smart & talented man. He placed it as close as he could. The shower is free standing not behind a door where else would you have placed it?

[@glitterkitty1979]

Yeah I completely agree 👍

[@MatthewUrso]

​@@bethshoaf relax, he didn't cure cancer, he put a toilet under a sink, next to a bed

[@lisaduffy5853]

What a lovely grounded fella he is. His van is beautiful but also savy with space & design. I wish him many more adventures 🤩

[@deborahchapman222]

I don’t know what this guy does for a living but he definitely has a bright future in designing van builds and/or building vans. Most van and suv builds have places to sleep but little place to hang out. This van is fantastic. He even thought how to have an AC unit. I know I had to have a working ac unit when I had my suv. I never dry docked in it. I went to state parks.

[@debbieyash1679]

Young people are so cool now days! This is beautiful.

[@anthonycirone8318]

Of all the sprint RV videos I'vc viewed, this is the most inspiring. Good work!

[@TinyHomeTours]

The elevator beds create a lot of unique layout options in vans. So glad you found some inspiration in this build! :)

[@deepsea5107]

Lucas: you did an OUTSTANDING job on that build!! Thanks for sharing!

[@KnightMD]

Hands down the most beautiful back splash I've seen in a kitchen, van or not. Just beautiful.

[@lucasravizza]

Thank you!

[@AL-vw7kx]

I really like the elegant/luxurious to this.. everything about it .. materials/colors and the lay out, but like to have it like in a stealth box truck with a lyft bed in the back .. so under youhave both sides seating with table middle.

[@paulmutter9154]

I love the floorplan of this design, especially the pass-through shower. However I think I'd actually go with a more traditional layout such as TTTHEFINEPRINTTT, in that, I need a desk space for gaming, as that's the spot I'm spending most of my time in. If Mercedes, Ford, or Ram could come up with another 36-42" on the length, I'd incorporate this design for that one. Otherwise, I love it! Well done!

[@vannessa1770]

Best van so far i have seen in KZbin

[@bonniel3679]

I've watched many videos on this channel and this is one of the nicest builds. So elegant and calming inside. Excellent work from someone who has only done this once before from the sounds of it. Great job Lucas. No wonder you talked about the toll this takes on you. You put so much care into it.

[@lucasravizza]

Thank you I appreciate the support!

[@marcodeoliveira9933]

Most elegant. Luxurious built I have seen. He has a gift. Some day when I do a van or truck camper built, I hope I can come somewhat close to his abilities.

[@audreyhutchison3308]

What can I say! Ingenuity, Asthetic design and your eye for color, Forward technology for vans of the future and especially a "home" that is enjoyable to use and the comforts that make life a place to sooth the soul.

[@ganymededarling]

This van is just stunning. Love all the woods and dark colors. He did an incredible job!

[@geraldoyo1]

Sweet rig! Amazing work from a 22 year old. You have real skill and talent!

[@marialamb6781]

I really love this set up the best and I have looked at a lot of videos. His corner shower is a unique efficient use of space and it is just roomy and provides everything you need minus the toilet. We also would want the toilet somewhere other than the shower. His choice of toilet style is one that we would also want. The elevator bed (with the skylight being a must ❤️) is already something I know that I would want. That is just so cool and such an efficient use of space. One day we would love to get on the road living out of our van and traveling the United States . 🤗

[@TinyHomeTours]

Sounds like you've got great plans and ideas for your van! Hope to see you down the road! 🙂

[@BoriquaBBW]

I love the use of black in the van. It makes it look very much like a modern apartment from the city. I love the leaves artwork, too. It really does bring a nice pop of color to the space. Where you put the shower is genius. I think the only thing I don't like is the toilet, but that is just me. I am sure it is fine for someone younger.

[@skywalker6648]

Same and along with the van, there is more of a home like feel too. I just didn't care for the location of the toilet. Seem like it should be within or closer to the shower with more privacy like in some other van builds. Overall, nice and professional looking.

[@Faithful525]

I like that when he sits on it, it's normal toilet height from the floor... much easier for this older gal to get up from than the low toilets we usually see in van builds.

[@margarethutchens5463]

The word I'd use to describe this van is elegant. The design raises it to a whole new level. I can't imagine 7 people though. I like my space. Great job Lucas.

[@sgommerable]

Brilliant idea with the toilet

[@DannyA3579]

Saw the other videos with Lucas and he has the NICEST van build I’ve ever seen. Hands down.

[@hawsrulebegin7768]

This is incredible. The best van conversion I’ve seen. It’s got everything you need and want but still has an airy feel. Quality work and a really nice guy. I’m going to have to take ideas from this fit!

[@TinyHomeTours]

So glad you enjoyed it and found some inspiration too! :)

[@supaTronic]

Best build seen by far.. for a van with elevator bed. Head to head with murphy bed design. The shower set up is genius and great use of space with the pass thru to the driver seats.

[@lisacampbell7954]

To pull of this amazingly constructed and designed van build at age 20, you can do anything you want !!!!

[@joywill9503]

The best amazing layout and idea ever your van is luxury at its finest for van life!!! Wow you definitely have amazing talent!!! Be safe and keep building😊 My dad was a master carpenter…I know amazing work!!! My dad taught me what to look for ❤

[@abbeyroadstudios4999]

What an extremely pleasant young man, plus he's only 22 years old and can build a complete mobile home from scratch, Looking back at my early 20's I conclude I wasted them completely, I wish I had the "get up and go" to undertake a task like this, it must be immensely satisfying to look at your finished product. Your van looks fantastic mate, a brilliant job, well done (ABRS-UK)

[@lyricsdebra]

Great van. It has everything anyone could need. The aesthetic is very modern and masculine

[@carlosmartin2264]

Lucas, you should start a travel channel, you have a very pleasant vibe, chill, sweet.

[@carolehenson6180]

Great idea!

[@vivanasperen3339]

Personally I love a van with a shower pan in the floor at the entry and just using a shower curtain. Opens up the space of the van significantly. I imagine someone could make a door that would wrap around the floor so one wouldn’t need to hang a shower curtain up each time. Good luck on the new project

[@carolehenson6180]

It's fun to learn the process of building out the van - with a number of serendipity experiences to build it exactly as Lucas wants. Lots of clever ideas in the van. I love that the garage is more like a closet - it seems easy to sort out what's in there and easily grab it. Love the shower, bed, air conditioning, and more!

[@blydnhvghn]

This was so clearly methodically planned and built. Very original. Impressive.

[@OrganicAlumination]

I love the outside of it, it's soooooo perfect

[@natalielanagan234]

This is truly an imaginative , stunning, and smart build. Lucas you are an amazing young man!

[@Beach_Guy]

You have featured many awesome tiny homes & build outs on this channel. But the one that has always stood out the most with me is the tour Vanessa gave us of her E350 cargo van about 1 month ago. That woman went from homeless to an extremely nice diy build. Very inspirational. I would love to see an update on how she is doing.

[@tombaker8481]

I can't imagine just how many lovely "travel companions" he manages to get in this beauty.

[@vickylittles6714]

[@catherinem6766]

[@Starlightv74]

I spend hours watching van builds and this is without a doubt the best van I have ever seen. I adore it!

[@leilal8053]

The interior reminds me of a ⛵ yacht.

[@jeffreyumeh8580]

honestly I would have went with a dark gray for the upholstery and light gray for the floors and walls, not because it would look better, but because stains wouldn't show through on the dark gray meterial much. Also I would have made it so you could remove the upholstery to wash it in the washing machine.

[@williamrusk1675]

This is the most beautiful van I've seen. Love the layout and color scheme. The shower is awesome

[@livingyourpretty8231]

I love how aesthetically pleasing as well as the beautiful organization this builder brought to the design of this van.

[@mariayu1012]

Wow, I became excited to finish the video upon hearing you once visited Philippines. This is a clever design for a van because majority of the vans on KZbin have the same design. Wishing your safety on your vanlife

[@Tarteviant]

Beautiful man, beautiful van.. I love that the toilet is tucked away and not inside a shower where you're constantly cleaning the inside and outside of it.. very thoughtful and quite debonair style

I saw Jarrod's tour of this van before but the layout was cool enough to watch a 2nd time.

[@deniselockhart2882]

Your van build is a upscale luxury van. Just beautiful. I love everything about it especially the shower. I'm always curious when people do van builds without showers and toilets, they don't think those are important? I'm very impressed with the high quality of your craftsmanship. I'm sure you'll hit it out of the park with your first customer build, you did with this one.
