NEXT LEVEL luxury VAN CONVERSION // HIDDEN queen-sized bed, HUUUGE shower & INCREDIBLE cinema 🚐

[@sassyscribe8642]

Absolutely love this van’s layout, especially tucking the toilet (toilets aren’t pretty) and the bed (beds are only used 7-9 hrs a day) out of the way. First van tour where I can picture being happy living in it. And design-wise, it’s beautiful.

[@MarkRVillano]

Love this build! A nice tweak would be to make a walnut cutting board milled out on the underside to fit over the induction cooktop, thereby protecting it completely from anything dropping on it.

[@lsmith992]

Putting the toilet where the block of drawers currently is would be better, with access to it from the shower only . Not in the aisle which is a really bad idea. I've seen it in that space with pullout access from the shower.

[@rhearealica4631]

I would rather have a curve shower and a secret pull out toilet inside. Maybe just make an overhead garage too so that there is access to the front just swivel the passenger chair or something.

[@artofsam]

Was about to say the exact same thing, everything else in this layout is 100% perfect and so meticulously planned out that I was a little surprised to see the toilet hadn't been given more consideration. Like you said I have seen another conversion where a couple had the exact same drawer-sliding toilet he had except they installed it inside the shower so not only do you get privacy and keeps odours away but it can just slide back into the the hidden cupboard when you want the space back for showering. If he did exactly that with this van I would be tempted to buy it off him haha.

[@shantibeach1871]

Agree

[@shantibeach1871]

Looks great

[@craftyourwaytopeace]

That's true

[@Rafael-ri2ft]

Great layout, I agree, the shower is awesome. I would change the toilet, more so if sharing the van space or in case of guests, I would also probably like a bigger fridge. Otherwise, the design is fantastic. The battery power is far better than the professional builders so to the water capacity. Great job!

[@marystankiewicz2523]

You are a true blue craftsman and just as gorgeous of a man. Best to you in your future endeavors. God bless from someone who wished they did this years ago. I’m 65 and it’s too bad time flies by so fast

[@lucasravizza]

Thank you for this tour and everyone who watched!

[@midnite22767]

Amazing build and layout! Smart to route all water on one side of the van and separating electrical on other wheel well cabinet. I sometimes see them combined and wonder about safety. Only two minor changes I would make are a hanging rack above the sink to store wet clean dishes after you wash them. An insulated solid lockable pass through door in the cab area. I would feel better if that door could prevent direct access to the living area. Great tour. Thank you!

[@rchosfan]

Great suggestion on the solid, lockable, pass-through door! I really like the concept of how the cab can be viewed as a mudroom, esp. during inclement weather (the mess that can come from rain & snow).

[@DrDooms13]

This is prob one of my favourite conversions I’ve seen

[@marygilogley9955]

❤❤❤ I don't think I've ever seen a van or yours that I've not loved ❤❤❤

[@HumbleRoad]

Brilliant design! I love the way you think. This van turned out very well. Are you near New Jersey? Are you willing to relocate?

[@williamhuigens3192]

This is one absolutely stunning build!

[@rchosfan]

Super outstanding-really just amazing! Love the front, vertical garage and that pass-through of the shower to the cab; making the cab into a mudroom during inclement weather. The walkable solar panels are great, too! As much as I like the concept of not making the bed each day & having it go up & down, I still might opt for having to make it daily for the increased ceiling height (feeling of more space inside) but, more importantly, to have access to the skylight 24/7. However, I’d almost need to see it in person first. All in all, this is fantastic! What I’ve said is just customization that someone may like.

[@valappleby9960]

Very nice build. So glad to see the Laveo - it is absolutely the only way to go. (No pun intended). 😂

[@Stevenowski]

@Val Appleby 😂😂

[@ivancarli5566]

I feel like a lot of storage space could be fit underneat the floor "around the chassi", I know that is a little tricky to do and could compromise the 4x4 capability, but I have a feeling you could make one of those couch an entire wardrob. Also maybe theres a way to fit eletric panels and water pumps on the chassis as well without have to modify it. I never see someone doing it yet on van layouts, but for someone with your craftman ability I thing that could be the extra next level.

[@MultiDenissined]

one of the best build ive seen, just the toilet id change to get it out in the shower. Nice video!

[@johnsycamnias1780]

I love this van's layout. Its absolutely stunning. The only thing I'd change would be the toilet, it needs a new location. It would be awkward if you had visitors over and someone needed to use it. Especially if it were raining outside or if you had just had food delivered.

[@moteroargentino7944]

Yep, for a van that took hosting visitors in it's design, and already has a full shower, it's strange that he decided to put the toilet there.

[@rchosfan]

@@moteroargentino7944 Agreed. Would love to see that in the shower space. Conversely, that opens up the space for more food pantry, kitchen accessories, clothes, etc. where the toilet “was” (under the sink). Ultimately, since the entrance through the cab seems secondary (and I do like that concept!), I would prefer to see the toilet in the shower. Temporarily move it out when it’s shower time.

[@moteroargentino7944]

@@rchosfan Indeed, it looks out of place. That kind of "open toilets" are good only for singles or couples, to save space. If you plan on having people over, you definitely need an enclosed bathroom for privacy. Regarding the passway, while I prefer a regular sliding door and stealthy designs, I've seen some vans where they installed a hatch/window. So the opening is downsized to the minimum while still keeping the function of getting through, and they get to use almost all of that space. It looks pretty neat.

[@MP-tw7iq]

It could be an option to set the toilett in the shower but use some space from the garage? So you have more privacy but a little bit less storage room. So with the system which you used now to put it out like now in the living room.

[@innerself3796]

I hear ya but no one but me would use my toilet. Sorry, you'd have to poop in your own space😊

[@RobertHamon]

Would've liked to see the toilet slide out into the shower instead of into the kitchen area, I think your design could accommodate that.

[@lucasravizza]

The next one does 🎉

[@lucasravizza]

The next one does 🎉

[@angeleoness]

That is a magnificent build! So luxurious looking kickit comfy! Love it!

[@jellybeanhikes9581]

You find a way to slide the laveo into the shower add a littel more counter space this would be the boss

[@lucasravizza]

Wait until the next van 👀

[@ninabains4349]

Just when I thought - too bad it's missing...there it is. Amazing build, it has everything and then some.

[@wabz.z]

By far a beautiful design I wish he showed off that beautiful art piece in the wall and the bathroom shower tile

[@ChibiChula]

Absolutely lovely work! I think if you make room for personalization, you have a winning design here. Well done! 😁👍

[@robertbangkok]

Very creative and beautiful build. Impressive

[@srhatfield]

What an amazing build. Great job!

[@BrianDias007]

Beautiful van, great design and layout- keep up the good work

[@jeromehebert3184]

Dude, that is a Great layout.. that shower is Awesome and that drop down bed wow. Great job.

[@NateMurphy]

One of the best builds we’ve ever seen!

[@mysticalsouls]

wow, what a great van, I would want the toilet to live in the shower cubicle and less couch with a work desk/tv/comp monitor and it would be perfect for me!

[@asdf-bm4df]

Best would be for the toilet to be in the shower when not in use- and when in use turned to face the driver seats upon which that door can slide open for your legs to fit behind/between the seats. This would allow you the privacy behind the kitchen facing shower door- especially if that door can be made extra sound insulated. Outstanding layout otherwise.

[@monicac.6941]

Coolest bathroom concept ever! Though I’d swap the drawers with under the sink and have the toilet slide out into the shower… I wouldn’t want to do my business out in the open lol.

[@olgaraffa1]

Essentials: bed, couch, tea, wine, sink, 💥boom. OMG 2 person shower! Water saving! 😅☄️🔥🌟

[@rchosfan]

I know this might sound odd but since you’re “cut off” from quickly seeing out the front, would there be a benefit in having a camera and monitor so that you could quickly turn it on if needed?

[@shakers4u]

Yes, such an inventive layout instead of following the crowd. Great materials too.

[@TCDShow]

Great build… bravo 👏 Great 👍🏻

[@gretaberry4983]

Amazing conversion! So stylish and elegant. Very classy and unique ❤❤

[@sassyd8738]

Nice concept and build indeed

[@boblau123]

This is great one,zero waste of the space

[@MOTORVESSELFREEDOM]

Love this layout and aesthetics…I would use same toilet, but just put in shower. When you shower take it out

[@kashisman]

This is with different the best layout I have ever see until now Congratulations

[@peymanstd]

The shower idea is original. My first change is moving the toilet into the cabinet next to the shower and pulling it from the inside. The shower is also considered a very rarely used space, so I might be opening up the front and making the walkthrough to the driver's cabin more open or coming up with some idea to utilize the shower space as a desk or something when it's not in use which is 90% of the times if not 99%. Ideas are flowing...

[@patricialacava4472]

What size is the skylight? Also can it be installed so that it opens the opposite direction or open to the side? It would be easier to climb onto the roof and to clean the solar panels if you did. Not have to wiggle around the cover.

[@eniolar1]

Nice one❤ please how did you do the wall plant 🌱?

[@Chris-vs9le]

This makes me want to try build a van myself. Really nice layout and use of materials.

[@lucasravizza]

You should! Lmk if you have any questions

[@LUXXYlIV]

I’m copying this Van Build except / my toilet will pull out INTO THE SHOWER 🚿 from the Door garage area - I’ll be able to pull a slide out so I can empty the toilet - I don’t mind losing a little space in the garage and maintain the kitchen as a kitchen … I would have never thought of this floor plan So I AM 💯 GRATEFUL FOR YOU AND ALL OF YOU OUT HERE! I currently have an Ambulance International 4300 on my channel “Not Only Vans” I can’t wait to sell her and start my new van build ❤️

[@mikefranks4528]

Incredible design! One of my favorite designers by far for van life. Great job!

[@alanrobisonPD1960]

Amazing Amazing Amazing!!

[@teslarex]

Great build!

[@paulwilson3759]

Wow, this is my favourite build so far. Might have to start a new project!!

[@NateMurphy]

Agreed Paul, it’s an incredible build! Check out his KZbin page as he is always working on something new :)

[@mikefry5704]

Great build great van who ever gets it. Enjoy

[@lugnut4848]

My fav build, I absolutely love the layout !!!

[@soulsistersam7]

Sir, you're not a car conversionist...YOU ARE AN ARTIST...SIMPLY WOW

[@BdManus]

Best van build ever!

[@Stevie6636]

That’s a gorgeous layout. But I would definitely have my composting toilet placed where the shower room is. Privacy is everything when you have friends come to hangout.

[@shedroids]

Wow... way unique and cool!

[@elleeg.9413]

Love that corner shower, however is the second nautilus door not insulated would want it to have that added temp control. Also I have issues with toilets and food prep areas. I would love to see the toilet coming from the storage area into the shower from a pull out compartment. The storage area- I would like to see an insulated removable exterior panel. Easier way to remove waste without carrying it thru the van. Question can a happy jack bed be a king size? Its a beautiful build. You have an amazing sense of design. Thank you for sharing your talent.

[@DaVION6426]

amazing built !!!very creative

[@SWhitmore]

Badass build bro

[@LurkerDood]

Nice dry bath 👋😁👍

[@God-Undefeated]

Great build 🎯👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

[@RayKapileo-ll6jp]

Love it Lucas. ❤❤❤

[@lucasravizza]

Thank you!

[@tinaprice6180]

Awesome build!!

[@Rasheed21]

Am I the only one not rocking with the cockpit to main cabin access being via the shower? Also, how do y'all feel about the lack of privacy with the toilet?

[@livingworkingoutsidebox]

Very well done.

[@BeeeHonest]

Brilliant

[@scoobysnacks]

Beautiful!

[@NicMercy]

if it were me, I'd put a draw dishwasher under the sink and put the toilet/drawer slides in the bottom part of the wetsuit locker/garage space. I'd prefer a little bit of privacy when using the toilet :P And if I wanted to be ambitious, if there was a way to get a combo washer/dryer above the toilet in that garage space, I would.

[@marylynn4629]

Love the van! Can you share more information on the fern wall art? Is it back lit or just a photo?

[@andreamatthews3014]

Great job, like the sage walls better than the previous black.

[@fvingerhoed]

Gorgeous .. 😊

[@tomclarkson3759]

Also reaching past the garage wall to unlock the door from the inside

[@onlyzach1]

Awesome build! Wonder what you can do in a Ford Transit non extended haha. Can a folded e-bike fit in the garage space? I'd def have to get a popup shower haha, and a fridge that can fit a frozen pizza and ice cream. If I do a build, I'd def get in touch.

[@GOLDVIOLINbowofdeath]

Why did you turn the opening on the operable skylight toward the back of the van where there’s no place to walk when you spent all that money on walkable solar panels?

[@lan.o]

Amazing van!

[@johnnyledbetter2119]

Gorgeous! This is the one.

[@jonclement]

what kind of dc-dc charger do you need at the 250A alternator? Oh, it might be good to add some back cupboards under the bench for storage/stuff access from the back door.

[@walterstockhecker5579]

Superb!

[@Sfbaytech]

Looks fabulous. I’d just put toilet in the shower room.

[@50whatnomadtravelnursemtb5]

In the end…it’s a van..down by the river! lol…how ever fancy of price tag you put on it. It’s a cargo van.

[@keithjackson4985]

Nicely done dude!

[@itsallbiznz155]

It's probably the most efficiently designed van I've seen, but like others, placing the toilet elsewhere, like where the garage is, would offer better privacy.

[@lucasravizza]

Agreed and since this van I have moved the toilet into the showers!

[@sacriiwar1026]

Its L3H2 or L4H2? I guess is L4 but im not sure ;)

[@hoopaholicstickum]

Nice build

[@marcusallen35]

Lovely ❤..... what's the name of the song at the beginning?

[@kerrygreenlees1102]

Great job.

[@timothybint4960]

Good build 👍 did you use lightweight ply for all the furniture doors & cabinet carcasses?

[@agirlandagadget3093]

Do you do conversions for other people? I love the layout but know I won’t ever be able to do it myself.

[@mivhaelplemons934]

Really love this

[@teresahotta]

Really beautiful.

[@ahmadhidayah1]

Love it

[@zeroogwomenbluechip9783]

Wow nice where do I buy these vans from?

[@lisas6056]

It is mint!

[@dede-rt3jq]

Where can I find those solar panels??

[@adarodriguez8007]

After I saw your first van I was completely uninterested in any other layout. Your layouts are awesome and if I ever have the blessing on owning a van if definitely has to be like yours. Except for the toilet in this one. God bless you

[@eauto9152]

Wow 👍🏼

[@davesworld7961]

Yes. The toilet should pull out into the shower area from under the wardrobe. Other than that this van is gorgeous and brilliant.

[@2020videography]

Could I ask what projector this is?

[@Tazzytoodle]

Hmmm..maybe move the closet.to the side by the bed. And the sink to the shower side. Then do the toilet to, slide out into the shower. Otherwise, very nice.

[@gew12]

Nice design but some of features would of been differently by me for example having a big guest area but no private toilet or sky light only available to bed mode not living mode.

[@ecksdeeeXD]

Gorgeous van but for a home on wheels, I think it needs a dedicated work station. I feel like a lot of usable space was wasted on the giant lounge area.

[@darrellfort1668]

vanlife4ever!

[@muhammadabdo2758]

How much is the overall cost ?
