Let’s Design Your Van

Japandi interiors with natural materials, warm light and room to breathe.

Japandi, Made for the Road

Every Tiny Planet interior is built in the Japandi style, where Japanese simplicity meets Scandinavian comfort. It’s a calm, natural way to live: fewer things, better made, and a place for each of them.

  • Natural materials

    Bamboo, real stone and textured fabrics bring warmth you can see and feel.

  • Earth tones

    Muted wood, sand, clay and stone colors that sit well together and with the landscape outside.

  • Clean lines, no clutter

    Simple shapes and hidden storage keep the van calm and easy to live in.

  • Made to last

    Functional furniture from quality materials, designed for years on the road.

Light That Sets the Mood

The right light is what makes a small space feel cozy. We think it’s a big part of a good trip: it helps you wake up, cook, work and slow down at the end of the day.

  • 4 to 8 lighting zones

    Warm white ceiling light, RGB ambient strips and reading lights over the bed, each on its own.

  • Voice and smart home control

    The smart home system runs the lights along with heating, A/C and fans. Just say “Alexa, turn on night mode” or tap a scene on the 11″ tablet.

  • Spotlights over the table

    Two adjustable spotlights above the dinette light up the table for games, writing or work. Better light than most restaurants.

  • RGB ambient light in any color

    The ambient strips glow in any color you pick: soft amber for a slow evening, deep blue for a movie night, or anything in between.

A Mattress Worth the Trip

While getting ready for our trip around the world, we realized that on a long journey nothing matters more than a good night’s sleep. Standard RV mattresses weren’t good enough, so we went to a mattress factory and designed our own: 4″ thick, made of two 2″ layers, one firmer and one softer.

  • Custom 4″ mattress

    Our own design, made for Tiny Planet beds and dinettes.

  • For sitting and sleeping

    Supportive enough for a long evening on the lounge, soft enough for a deep night’s sleep.

Questions About Design

What is the difference between Bourbon and Smoke?

The tone of the wood. Bourbon is deep and warm, Smoke is light and soft. The layout, systems and price are the same.

Does the finish change the price?

No. Bourbon and Smoke cost the same.

Can I choose the countertop, stone and fabrics?

Yes. You choose the countertop, the shower and backsplash surface, the wall upholstery and the cushion fabric from our materials library. A few of them are upgrades at an additional cost.

Can I get either finish in any model?

Yes. Both finishes are available in Orbita, Aura and Pulsar, in every package.

Do you build custom interiors?

No. Every Tiny Planet van is built in Bourbon or Smoke with materials from our library. You still choose the model, the package and the options.

When do I choose my finish and materials?

You can start in our online builder. You confirm every detail with your manager after the deposit, and production starts only after you approve your build.

Can I see the materials before I decide?

Yes. At our Sacramento factory you can touch the wood, stone and fabrics and see finished vans. Visits are free, by appointment, and usually take about two hours.
