Unveiling the Most Epic DIY Van Build You'll Ever Witness!

[@JarrodTocci]

Few vans I tour leave me speechless, but this creation by Kirby has done that. He is a true artist and I loved every second of showing off his latest van to my audience. This van is currently for sale so feel free to email Kirby and if you're intrested in the Solar Sail please contact Landship Customs. Lastly, massive thank you to Kirby himself for doing an amazing edit for me. I think I should hire him to do more edits for me haha Tours Playlist: kzbin.info/aero/PLHrnevETejEMWv5kclacXhH6atb3ax6tl Vlogs - Weekly - Building, Travel, Adventure: kzbin.info/aero/PLHrnevETejEMseRhXNwNjrs5BU7RLpvhg DIY Tiny Home Build - Start to Finish: kzbin.info/www/bejne/l5S7poCGa62KgNU Tocci Talks - My Opinions on Van Building/Living and Tiny Homes kzbin.info/aero/PLHrnevETejEPr_CjiEsuYq6-f0c6Yr1y6

The instant window broke my brain

[@whodat-accountability]

This may be the best van builder I’ve ever seen. Respect when respect is due. This guy has next level ideas and any major companies who are making 30 vans a year should be approaching this man with 500k a year as their designer and R and D. Truly next level.

[@Chereese0808]

The most creative for sure!

[@Steve-qn8gn]

Haha, 500k, how much you think ppl are paying for these things to justify that?

[@beatsoara]

200k max

[@WeiFinder]

@@beatsoara even 200k is a (big) stretch.

AND his interior designer. She designed the wholr look, colors, materials, shapes. They make an incredible team those two. He could make alot of money making versions of these and other designs with alot of the same principles.

[@roberthead2408]

This is wonderful - the Flintstones meet the Jetsons

[@SoloTravelCoach]

Don't know what you ended up naming the van but every time I look at it I see Bedrock. I am a child of the late '60s and '70s. That ceiling is so yabba dabba doo along with the windows. Totally Flintstone.

[@The.Hawaiian.Kingdom]

I like that it’s a kind of modern 70ish vibe, it’s really a vibe unto itself. It’s very classy, reminds me of a yacht in a way, but also fun, creative & comfy. Great job, Kirby. 👍🏽

[@RobertLindberg-cv3vj]

I love how humble Kirby is. He doesnt seem to need to showboat, his incredible design speaks for itself. Love that. Yes I was speechless too, probably the coolest and most original design i’ve seen. The organic shapes reminds me very much of architect and designer Antoni Gaudi, who’s astonishing work is all over Barcelona. Loved the soft feel and lighting. The slanted drawers were a cool touch, the magnets and of course the instant window covers, that was futuristic. Applause to Kirby! Oh and I have the nebula projector too, an incredible little machine. Much recommended.

[@angeladesmarais8826]

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@ckz001]

Call it "Funkedelic Dream". Love the organic look as you put it, breaking away from the typical boxy look. The magnetic design along with the digital window privacy is so cool.

[@pzwarich]

Drawer lighting at the 8 minute mark is brilliant.

[@catw6274]

WoW! Shout out to his interior designer as well! That sandstone paint is incredible with the curved shapes. I thought I was looking at adobe or cob. Trying to guess how he did the curved shapes. Best guess is 1/8" plywood, since it bends so nicely. That inner bamboo trim just really ties it all together. Glad to know it's his 13th van so I don't feel so bad about my first! Nicely done!

[@wendybagby7520]

When I saw this come up in my feed, I was like WHAT??!! THIS IS SUPER COOL AND AWESOME!!! I grew up in the 70s and 80s. This is just so much fun!! Love the creativity and design. THANK YOU FOR DOING THIS VAN TOUR!! I ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT!! THERE'S NOTHING I DIDN'T LIKE!! SHARING!! Congratulations! 😍😍🥰🥰❤️❤️👏👏👏

[@irishpatriciadesiree]

WOW! This is the creation of a genius brain child! I am so impressed with your attention to ALL details! 🥰

[@Janartable]

I love it love it love it. The color pallet is delicious. The magnet ideas are fabulous. The windows are so whimsical. And then the extras like slanted drawer fronts and imbedded lights. Just wow!

[@mothermedicinemusic]

Love love the artful expression with super quality. The magnets, instant window coverings, and hidden bathroom stuffs is a game changer for van life. And love love the ease of the bed / dining area. Fantastic design!🎉🎉🎉

[@divinewrath3142]

That is stunning! I am so jealous of people who's brains work like that! All the curves makes it feel so cozy and comfortable. Amazing work! Thanks for this tour Jarrod, a real work of art.

[@NinaThoren]

Oh, I love the vibe of this van, such nice flow that you don't often see with van builds! I applaud you Kirby, well done!

[@lisamoore9318]

I have been a Van-life follower for 6 years. I was elated when my best friend's son Kirby started building Vans. Last night this video popped up on my KZbin feed. Incredible!!

[@dinkvjr]

You should get the family discount!! 😊

[@TheDennyZone]

🎶Dream Weaver🎶 would be the perfect name for this stunning piece of artistry! Even the lyrics of this 70’s song go along with it. Excellent taste in this design drawn from a time when music pushed people’s boundaries. I am so impressed!

[@rayhwilson]

Wow. Just wow. I’ve seen endless builds, but this definitely stands out from the crowd. Clever and smart. Great job 👏

[@bebeencouche3579]

The vibes of this van just left me speechless. Incredible work !

[@chrisdaniel1339]

There have been others that have done tippable solar, but as an ultra clean, production grade storage box option with the pop out Starlink that is pretty slick.

[@katlas]

Everything about this van, this video, is PERFECTION.

[@tallibethau7713]

I'm awestruck by what this guy has done to his van! It has a retro-psyche vibe to it and yet so futuristic in its practicality. He was really smart to work with an interior designer to bring an already amazing concept to the next level. That Keith Haring-inspired ceiling and Dali clock are really delightful touches. Just can't get over how awesome this is. I need a magnetic ceiling and wall right now!

[@reuven2010]

dont magnets get weak over time

[@captainbarbosa6567]

Name it The Astral Traveler. Cool, funk, dope, functional fun and cozy like a five star cave condo. Just wow and trippy 🤩🤩🤩 (also you gotta be a lil hippy with that shower thingy😅)

[@teedub1990]

It's like Flintstones meets Salvador Dali. I really love it. I think a shag carpet would be awesome.

[@michaelgiorgio7447]

This would make a great rental van (like a niche Air BnB). I think bookings would be great.

[@jaytabac6525]

except for the fact that the shower is not the easiest thing to set up and put away, and . . . who wants to go on a vaca with a toilet that rolls out in the middle of a van. also, it s really hard to make the bed of a van with the converted dinette bed. Really hard. its a nice looking van, but the truth is that when you actually think of the liveability, you can tell that the creativity and art of the van was more of a priority than functional living.

[@michaelgiorgio7447]

@@jaytabac6525 that's why it makes for a better short term rental... you can put up with those inconveniences for a few days for the unique wow factor. I agree that long term livability is not desirable

[@jaytabac6525]

@@michaelgiorgio7447 maybe you are right. its hard to say what another person would do. For me, my wife would never travel with a bathroom in the open. Nor would my son or daughter. For me, it's a deal breaker, but to each his/her own.

[@michaelgiorgio7447]

@@jaytabac6525 yeah people want to go to festivals, art Basel, any party 70's related, Halloween, new years, or take it to aspen or the beach... it has its party/ special event purposes for sure

[@sweetsugarjones]

@@jaytabac6525 It’s not for me either, I don’t even want to use that shower, let alone share it. I do think it’s a better vacation rental than home, but with that kind of money you’d find me vacationing in a beach house, cabin, tree house, tiny home...

[@MJ-ge6jz]

This is Next Level. The Solar Sail solves a lot of problems with compact Van living. I have 1000 Watts of solar on my Ambulance, and that solves much of the charging problems. I should have extended the support rack height for the panels so I could fit my Max Air as well as having storage. This is the way to multi-use Solar and Storage.

[@gufredd9675]

I wonder how it does in the wind. 🤔

[@101doreen]

​@@gufredd9675I'm sure the struts have specs for strength. Van lifers aren't usually hanging in super windy places. Otherwise, it goes down and is like every other van panels.

[@shinylittlepeople]

Love it! I'm feeling 80's with 70"s vibes. I was born in the early 70's but my clothes as a kid in the 80's were big bold shapes and bold. Feels is warm and rich! The 80's borrowed from Artdeco but not with so much of the smaller details but the flowy lines and odd shapes. This feels rich and cozy and makes me want to sit with that round pillow in my lap and drink wine... and ponder the my childhood. Everything here works as a design concept and is one of the best I've ever seen! The ceiling is killer! Thanks for sharing!

[@tamsolo1584]

Bro is the Willy Wonka of van conversions.

[@joec4871]

That etch n sketch is from the 50's. I had one when I was a kid. Had to come back to this video. That build keeps ringing in my head. That's a hip mood from the 70's when I was a teenager when all that make love not war was going on! It was a cool era. Good job.

[@christianhenningsen1933]

Wow I love this van SO MUCH. The interior design and decor is amazing, incredible vibe. But then, artistic elements aside, the design is so damn good. OOf thinking about selling my house for this XD

[@PastWitch98]

Yo, amazing! While I like watching videos about van life and builds, I know I couldnt personally do it. But damn! Does this van make me wanna live in it! The design and feel is sooo relaxing! I love that the shower takes up no space and the bed is the best of boty worlds with no effort need to switch modes. This van is relaxing, spacious, and minimal effort to get or move things. The solar panels are next level! I want this van! Whoever gets it is lucky!

STUNNING! The most impressive build I’ve seen. To see where you’ve come from your first build to this show cases the incredible gift we have as humans to build our skills and grow! You really found your niche, Kirby. Thank you for sharing!

[@rjvWA]

Hot damn!! Sen-bloody-sational. I love love LOVE those gorgeous windows! And the arches make this an art installation for sure! But for more user friendly practical reasons, The mirror arched wardrobe I woulda changed to an upright DC fridge and freezer, this needs ice-cream in the freezer in summer.. It has an echo of the shape of an ice-cream Van a little I reckon.. As it's under the couch cushions, anyone sitting there has to move before you can eat, (no midnight munchies with the fridge where it is! You need at least 3 hands to hold up the lounge cushion to get food out of the fridge/freezer. But if it's in a triangle between the sink, fridge freezer and your Cooktop (idid I miss wherever the cooktop is??) That ergonomic design layout of a fridge/sink/Cooktop is an absolute pleasure to cook in, with everything within reach, or only 1 step away ! You could use the hinged mirror door to give you PRIVATE toilet on a slider under the upright fridge freezer, Clothing can be rolled up under the couch/Bed, perfect spot to access when you get up out of bed and, it is also a great spot for a separate dirty laundry tub, with a hinged lid UNDER the bed. What was used as the timber on the thin vertical inner window frames? Is it Bamboo? I love the layered texture on the inside of the curvy window sills/ frames ?? Are they double glazed?plexy glass or ?? These beautiful curves and arches I adore !! Was this the interior designer ? Or Kirby's?? It's an architectural masterpiece of design, and quite an epic sexy features make this a timeless classic, 😮

[@homestreethome39]

[@AladdinSE]

Notice how every SINGLE demo of these “assembly beds” NEVER show placement of the bedding and fitted sheets? That’s because if they did it would show what a pain in the rear-end it would be to do that every night. And I bet you money those cushions and sheets routinely pop out of place if you so much as twitch in your sleep LOL

I've been wanting to do a fridge under the front bench seat like that and didn't know if it was possible until now. Great build.

[@gnarbeljo8980]

I'm not even into psychadelic aesthetics but this is bar none, the most incredible, ingenius, functional, cohesive and creative van I ever saw ! And I've seen a l o t of vans. All the magnetic gear, the skylight, the multiple assymetric windows, the lighting, it's mindblowing! Too much sicial blabber here though. Missing way too much functional detail that aren't "extra" but important. It's even unclear how to cook (no stove top shown). One thing I'd have done is put the fridge in the lowest part of the closet, on sliders, and cut the door accordingly. The freezer is ok under the sofa I guess, the fridge there seems a pain for more than one person in the van. Every time you reach for a beverage, a take ingredients out and put them back, it's really impractical to have to mess with cushions, lids and seating. I'm also missing a real table to both eat and work from. Or did I miss that in the blahblah? Where tech is located, how it's reached, grey water tank, kitchen gear, all that wasn't covered, and that's the content creators fault, not the builder. Written bullet points are handy if you tend to digress as an interviewer. I must say: the entire roof within and without is the coolest thing ever, the look, the light, the magnets, the solar panels and storage, unbelievable ! The remote controlled window covers completely blew my mind! The tech and mulpifunction in this build is entirely unique! Roundabout how much is he selling it for?? I was thinking... I'd love to see this exact design but in a Greek island look. Various shades of white limewash, pebbles where the wood decor is in those windows, seafoam chaise lounge, deep ultramarine/cobalt ceiling, or design of olive branches, sand colored sofa/bed and an olive-wood lagoon table with a resin design in it. The design of this entire build would fit that look perfectly. Also ferries in the Greek archipelago take vans this size without expensive costs and on the mainland it's easy to travel. Too bad all this gear and builders are in the US. 😢
