A big focus of Habitat’s development has, counter intuitively, been virtual. For a van build company, at first this seems quite strange; this approach is more common for companies developing apps or websites.

For us, laying this digital foundation correctly has been key to crafting better products. Using this digital foundation allows us to rapidly design and test ideas internally, and, externally this allows us to design entire vans remotely, then flat pack and ship the build as a kit.

Meet Juniper, an all season, all wheel drive Ford Transit, designed with all the off road capabilities and home comforts to keep the adventures going all year long.

Sage was our third van conversion, and one build under special circumstances. The world was mid-pandemic and we decided to spend some time in our home country of the UK. Wanting a project, and also hopefully a way to travel once the many restrictions lifted, we got to work creating our ideal tiny home. We did eventually end up traveling the UK in this van, and explored all the way up through the Scottish Highlands to John O Groats, and down through Cornwall to Land’s End. We spent time in the Peak District, the Lake District and in Wales before eventually selling Sage, and returning to Canada.
