We’ve seen tons of van conversions, but the Nevis van conversion from Brown Bird and Company has some truly one-of-a-kind features. The L-shaped couch really stands out, and there’s a wet bath partitioning off the double bed in the back of the conversion.
Unlike most conversions, the kitchen is in the front of the van across the cab. This makes the inside of the van feel particularly wide open! We got to interview Laura, one of the three masterminds of the company, below, so don’t miss that.

Interview & Details:
What got you into building tiny houses?
Originally it was because we had a house rented out whilst backpacking but needed to return home due to a short-term illness and needed a home! Jacqui had always wanted to build her own campervan so with the help of YouTube built her own in 2018, and then went travelling for a few years in it. Then we got grounded due to lockdown, and we decided to build another one as a project and just kept on building whilst we were in lockdown due to demand. We realised there was a demand for designer-look handbuilt campervans and decided to expand the business.
What are your future plans for the business?
We have recently moved workshops as we needed more room to expand. We have recently also made James a partner in the business as he brings a wealth of technical expertise to our business and also has a great attention to detail. We can now pretty much say yes to anything, and have exciting plans to expand what we can do into other types of builds.
How many tiny homes have you built?
11 and we are on vans 12, 13 and 14!

love the bathroom so much!
This is a stunning van conversion! Beautiful wood trim, live edge counter, wall trim, bed and bath. Great job!
Live edge counter??? Where you constantly get stabbed (or worse). Yeah right… think I’d pass on this…
