A value-for-money furniture kit that focuses on the essentials for a great van conversion.
*a 120 cm bed in Peugeot Expert and Citroën Jumpy and all vans sharing the same platform.
Ben walks you through the Minimalist – how it's built, how it works, and why the best conversion is often the one that does less.
Minimalist V2 – Kit Showcase
The Standard version, is the pure base build: the B130 sliding bed and the A2v2 side cabinet. Everything you need to sleep, sit, and stash your stuff on the road.
The Deluxe version, is the same kit PLUS the two upgrades most people add later: a deep internal drawer for clothes and small gear, and a telescoping outdoor kitchen drawer that slides out to 110 cm – perfect for a portable stove, coffee setup, or cooler.
No second-guessing. No slow upgrades. Just the cleanest, fastest-building L1 kit on the market, finished from day one.
💡 Not ready to go all-in on the Deluxe? No problem – start with Standard and customise whenever you're ready.
Each Minimalist kit is designed for your exact van model. A quick trim here and there — and you're home.
Roughly 19 kg lighter than the Drifter, the Minimalist adds almost nothing to your payload. Better fuel economy, easier handling, and room for all the gear you'd rather carry.
The Drifter includes our front kitchen unit – great if you want a finished camper out of the box.
You get the full B130 Wide Sliding Bed – the same versatile system we put in the Drifter and the Voyager. Bench seat by day, L-shaped sofa when you want it, true double bed at night. No compromise at the place you spend the most time.
The Nomad & The Roamer both offer a lot more storage, but a narrower 120 cm bed – less suitable for two sleepers.
The Minimalist is designed to grow. Add a C5 kitchen unit later. Bolt in a D1 overhead shelf when you need one. Drop in a water kit the day you decide you need running water. The B130 and A2v2 are the core everything else in the Classic range is built around – so you're never locked in.
Need a kitchen station? The Drifter is fully loaded from day one – perfect if you already know exactly how you want to travel.
A quick breakdown of the practical details builders care about most.
The Minimalist is our fastest DIY camper van kit to assemble – just two main units to install, with basic tools and no specialist skills. Most builds are done in well under a day.
Everything is precision-cut from the same templates we've refined over more than a decade, so there's no measuring, adapting, or fixing mistakes as you go.
Made from the same lightweight poplar plywood used in high-quality van conversion furniture, the Minimalist balances strength and weight like the rest of the range.
You get a setup that's easy to live with on the road, but solid and reliable in daily use.
At 45 kg in total (66 kg with Deluxe drawer options), the Minimalist is the lightest conversion in our L1 range and one of the lightest real camper interiors anywhere.
That means less strain on your vehicle, better fuel efficiency, and a noticeably lighter feel on the road – plus more payload for bikes, kayaks, or a second passenger's luggage.
The kit comes in raw poplar plywood, ready to oil, paint, or leave natural. Unlike fixed camper van conversions, you're not locked into one finish – and because there's less surface area to finish, you can have the whole van done in a weekend.
Our Classic Slider bed gives you three setups in one: a bench seat, an L-shaped sofa, and a full 130 × 187 cm double bed.
A flexible camper van bed system designed for everyday use – not just sleeping.
Our units are modular and can easily be added to.
The Minimalist is the core – enjoy it as-is, or add a kitchen unit whenever you're ready.
Designed and handmade in France. Every Minimalist Kit leaves our workshop in the south of France – individually quality-checked, lovingly packed, and shipped to your door across Europe.

Real vans. Real people. Real freedom.
The best van conversion kit I've found in Europe. Lightweight, practical, easy to assemble, and excellent quality. I finished everything in just one weekend.
All parts are machined with incredible precision. Perfectly labeled, with extra screws and clear instructions. Easy to assemble even for a complete beginner.
The sliding bed is a game changer. From bench to a 130 cm double bed in 5 seconds. Three months across Spain and France — zero issues, still perfect.
The fit in my T6 was almost perfect. Full installation in less than a day. The drawer slides are smooth and pleasant. Customer service was fast as well.
Months of research, a clear winner. The value for money is unbeatable. The fold-down kitchen worktop has become my desk on the road. I love it.
