Every surface in this van carries that influence: a lime wash wall finish made from sediment paint and a beeswax topcoat, a compressed-paper countertop (an upcycled, sustainable material) in a honey hue with a walnut edge, patina copper accents throughout, cabinetry in almond laminate with walnut veneer, and a cork floor in a limited-run finish that's no longer in production, making this particular floor a one-off.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 dir=\"ltr\" class=\"text-text-100 mt-3 -mb-1 text-[1.125rem] font-bold\"\u003eSliding Shower\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe signature feature of this build is a sliding wet bath the team calls the Landship Glide (also nicknamed the \"cloak and soak\").
