Process
The design process began with spatial planning in SketchUp, supported by V-Ray renders to visualise scale and flow. Accurate van measurements were taken early on to optimise anthropometrics and ensure that all components supported daily movement, comfort, and rest.
Key design decisions were based on real-world needs: the bed, for example, was designed to accommodate specific height requirements, while cabinetry was arranged to maximise access without impeding mobility. A pullout bed, wardrobe, front storage unit, and dual-purpose countertop were all developed to support the demands of life on the road; from food prep to remote work.
Later additions included a sink and large under-counter fridge, installed beneath a hatch to increase airflow and efficiency. As the build evolved, refinements were made through active problem-solving and collaboration, with every decision grounded in lived experience and family feedback.
