step 2:

Pick your bed setup

These common layouts act a great foundation to getting your floorplan started, with ballpark pricing.You will be able to change your floorplan to exactly how you envision at the next phase of design.

Elevator bed

This bed can be lifted by means of an automatic pulley or fold away murphy style.

who it's for

Outdoor gearheads (bikers, skiers, surfers): Frees up vertical storage for bikes, boards, etc.

People with lots of gear or mobile business setups: Room for drawers, storage bins, or work benches underneath.

Full-time vanlifers: Want the option to maximize living space when not sleeping.

Tall people or those who need a full-size mattress: You can often have a proper mattress since the bed doesn’t need to split into cushions.

Pros

Retains a full, comfy mattress.

Huge storage/work space underneath.

Cleaner setup — you’re not handling cushions every day.

cons

More complex build (motors, gas struts, or pulley systems).

Requires more ceiling height.

fixed bed

This layout is very common in vans built for shorter wheelbases, outdoor sports or full-timers who live out of their rigs and need both storage and consistency.

who it's for

Mountain bikers, skiers, surfers — anyone who needs to haul gear.

Full-time vanlifers or long-term travelers who want comfort and convenience without having to convert the bed daily.

Solo travelers or couples who don’t need a lot of indoor seating and prioritize storage and sleep. People with dogs or pets. The pets often sleep underneath or can use the garage space.

Pros

Massive garage underneath for bikes, skis, tools, water tanks, etc.

Always ready — no setup, no fuss.

Comfy, consistent sleep on a real mattress.

Keeps the “living” space separate from “storage.”

cons

Less flexible floor plan — you give up some interior hangout/dining/workspace.
Can feel tight if the van has a low roof.

Harder to seat more than 2 people inside comfortably.

Convertible bed

This bed converts to a dinette or lounge area upon demand.

who it's for

Digital nomads or remote workers: Need a workspace during the day, bed at night.
Small families or couples: Want a communal eating or game space.
Weekend adventurers: Like to keep the van open and airy during the day.

People who prioritize socializing or hosting: The dinette lets you seat more people indoors.

Pros

Multi-use space (eat, work, lounge).
Opens up the van during the day.
Great for compact layouts.

cons

Daily setup/tear down of the bed.
Can feel less permanent or cozy than a fixed bed.
