Our custom builds are crafted to blend luxury and adventure together with the end goal to create mobile sanctuaries that redefine the way you travel. It’s our goal to make your home, weekender, or road-tripper exactly what you’ve imagined. Whether it’s adding personal touches that make your van yours like a surf-rack, storage for the mountain bikes, or a nook for your furry friend, we will always prioritize the details that matter most to you.
BEHIND THE BUILDS
Braydyn Deleeuw - Owner/Carpenter
With years of experience in general construction, finish woodworking, and custom cabinetry, I’ve developed the skills to transform any space into a comfortable, livable environment. My time living a nomadic lifestyle on the road has also taught me the value of minimalistic living, understanding how to integrate everything you want and need into your rig so you’re a complete unit on the road.
Bringing these two aspects together makes van building an really enjoyable process for me. My experience on the road, combined with my ability to build, allows me to envision and create ultimate off-grid rigs. The challenge of building in a small space, making use of every square inch, and ensuring that no nook or cranny goes to waste is really satisfying.
I aim to make each space comfortable, functional, and aesthetically pleasing, while still providing the freedom to travel anywhere. This process encourages you to prioritize what’s truly important and identify your essential necessities that you couldn’t live without. Because if it doesn’t fit in the rig, it ain’t coming!
