VW Caddy Maxi

Whilst we’re now focussing our work on the Nissan NV200, we wanted to showcase some of our past projects, as working on a variety of different vehicles has enabled us to hone our craft and develop our designs.

Many of the features and interior style choices among these pages can also be applied to our NV200 conversions, here we hope you’ll find some van-spiration and potential ideas for your own projects!

Our customer Cathy, came to us looking for a conversion with an earthy colour pallete, featuring shades of evergreen, sand and stone, creating the feel of a forest retreat on wheels. 

When designing this conversion, it was important to prioritise storage space and equip the van for Cathy to take extended trips away. As all of our furniture is custom made in-house, we’re able to utilise every inch of space, rather than having standard square units, our conversions are sculpted to fit the contours and shapes of each individual vehicle, so no space if ever wasted.

By carefully planning ahead, we ensure that all of the utilities in the van are thoughtfully considered, installing cables, water hose and gas pipe runs that are neatly and securely tucked out of the way, leaving storage areas free to be used just for luggage.

This high-spec conversion provides a perfect home-from-home for exploring the great outdoors and satisyfing that sense of wanderlust in comfort and style.

I feel very fortunate to have found them, and to have them design (3D), and construct wonderful bespoke furniture and coverings for my VW Caddy Maxi. I have never had a camper van, and as a solo female traveller their knowledge and expertise was invaluable. Their patience, enthusiasm, professionalism was beyond my expectations. I was sorry when the process was complete, as the whole journey was exciting, and I learnt so much. They were never weary of my endless questions!
