This exceptional camper van looks and feels better the closer you get. Step inside, experience the quality materials, take in the details, and explore the beauty and warmth of the interior finishes. This is the unique result of our dedication to meticulous craftsmanship. We are Apogee Fab, a small, full-custom builder in Seattle with a knack for creating beautiful and one-of-a-kind camper vans. This particular van was crafted over 1600 hours in the spring of 2024 to reflect some of our favorite design ideas, as well as to show off our handiwork. Typically our builds are made-to-suit for each individual client, but this stellar van is available to buy right now. It’s a rare opportunity to own an Apogee Fab build without the wait.
Any van can look amazing in a tiny image on your phone, but the true stand-outs will also look fantastic in person, and that’s what this build is all about. This has been our show van for the past year, and at every expo we attend it elicits the comment “This is the nicest van at the show”, and for good reason. This van is beautiful, comfortable, functional, full of clever details and yet also elegantly clean and simple. It’s not encrusted with piles of overlanding gear—any van builder can give you that—but it is built solid for the rigors of life on the road. This van is both a showpiece and a practical traveler, an adventure machine and a personal sanctuary.
