Bed area: 68 x 43 x 38.
Cubbyholes beneath bed: 20 x 15 x 13.
Storage area under bed, accessed by rear doors: 42 x 20/15 (R/L), x 27, and (middle): 22 x 31 x 27.

The living area is intentionally low tech – bed, lots of storage space, roof vent, bookshelf, cooker/water unit, hinged table, spot lights. Plenty of space should you wish to adapt the design/add electrics/appliances. Area behind the driver’s seat was specifically measured out to house a propex heat source / LPG heater, however I found that with insulation in walls, roof and floor the van has been warm enough that this wasn’t needed.
Any questions please feel free to ask.
