Here we will go through a few different layout options to get your creative juices flowing. Then some different build packages to get you thinking about what you need in your van.

How we customise your van build
Layout
Choose the layout to suit how you want use your van.
The two main layout types are ‘G-shaped’ or galley.
L-shaped layouts usually prevent opening up between the front cabin and the living area, and instead focus on maximising space for storage.
Galley style are great if you are wanting to upgrade to swivel seats and have your main dining and living area up front.
Bathroom
Have your own bathroom space, made just how you would like it.
There are so many options with bathroom facilities. You can have a dedicated cubicle, or you can have your toilet and shower hidden away, designed to pop out when you need them.
The choice really is up to you and how you would like to use it.
Exteriors
Equip yourself to travel to the most remote places in Australia.
Choosing the right exterior features is vital to your safety and comfort when travelling around Australia. It all depends on where you would like to go.
We can add extra wheel lift to tackle tracks normally out of bounds for RVs. We can add bullbars to protect you when driving at dawn or dusk. Tackle the most stone filled roads with stone guards.
Be sure to have adequate shade from the Aussie sun with a motorised awning.
Planning on travelling at night? Be sure to have great lighting.
Storage
Take the things you love with you!
Whether you’re a surfer, kayaker, mountain biker, scuba diver or rock-climber (or anything else really!) – be sure to have enough space to take care of your equipment.
Add custom storage just for your hobby, such as a custom roof rack for surfboards, or a dedicated van ‘garage’ area with a built in shower to rinse off sandy wetsuits, or with sockets to charge your ebike.
Your storage area to suit the way you want to enjoy Australia.
