Who is Cooper the Van?<\/h2>\n

Cooper is a retrofitted Mercedes Sprinter 316. We initially purchased him as an empty cargo van and customised him over the course of six months. <\/p>\n

The Cockpit<\/h2>\n

At the entrance of the van is the cockpit. Besides the driving force and passenger seats, we even have an intuitive dashboard system that tells us all the main points about Cooper. It additionally has CarPlay, so we are able to play our favorite street journey tunes.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n

Hunter\u2019s \u201cRoom\u201d<\/h2>\n

Right behind the cockpit is Hunter\u2019s little space. We put in a toddler\u2019s seat and made certain there was ample area on the ground for her to play. We hold her books and toys in bins that we are able to simply retailer after they\u2019re not in use.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n

The Living Room\/Dining Room\/Office<\/h2>\n

We knew we had restricted area to work with when constructing our van. That’s why we added a swivel desk. It can be utilized as a eating room desk, or it might swivel round in direction of our bench for use as a desk. On prime of that, we are able to transfer it in direction of the kitchen if we want further prep or counter area whereas cooking.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n

The Kitchen<\/h2>\n

The kitchen is certainly one of our favourite areas within the van. We have an extra-large sink, a 2-burner induction cooktop, and a mini fridge. The further storage beneath the cooktop holds all our cookware. We additionally put in a slide-out pantry the place we are able to hold spices and different little snacks!<\/p>\n

The Bedroom<\/h2>\n

A very good evening’s sleep is necessary, so we opted for a hard and fast mattress as an alternative of a convertible one. We additionally added a small child-size mattress for Hunter, which she will use when she’s sufficiently old to sleep and not using a crib. At evening, we hold magnetized window shields to dam out gentle and provides us privateness.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n

Storage<\/h2>\n

Most of our clothes is saved above the kitchen and residing space. We additionally constructed a number of different storage cubbies above the mattress and cockpit to maintain different knick-knacks. Underneath the mattress (accessed within the again), now we have our \u201cgarage\u201d. This is the place we retailer larger objects, electrical tools, and extra clothes.<\/p>\n

The Bathroom<\/h2>\n

We made the acutely aware determination to construct Cooper and not using a bathroom. However, we all the time journey to locations with public loos, so it has by no means been an issue! And if we have to bathe, now we have an out of doors bathe with each cold and warm water. <\/p>\n

We hope you loved this little tour of our household van. If you want what you see, you will get the total dimensions and format of our conversion right here<\/a>. <\/p>\n
