Muse & Co. Outdoors was started in March, 2020 when our 16-year old architectural design and build company was shut down overnight by Covid-19. We knew we had to keep our incredible team of designers and craftspeople employed, or risk losing them. So we hunkered down to remotely design and build our prototype Sprinter van conversion using our print department's delivery van. Fast forward three months, and my husband and I took off for a month's trip up the West Coast. Everywhere we went someone wanted to buy our van - or one just like it, and voila, our new business was born! We offer two van conversion configurations: a two-passenger and a five-passenger, both build on the proven Mercedes Benz Sprinter platform. Our team of designers and craftspeople, the talent behind breathtaking immersive spaces at Google, Facebook and beyond, are bring intuitive design and flawless functionality to the Sprinter van experience. All of our vans are built using sustainable and healthy materials that are better for the environment and good for you, because that's the right thing to do. We’ve spent countless hours considering the materials, components, and layouts of our models. The result? A high-quality camper van that functions flawlessly and feels like home—all you have to decide is where you’ll take it. Muse & Co. was founded in 2005 in Oakland, CA. Our eclectic team of designers, artists, shop specialists, and others come from varied educational and professional backgrounds—with roots in everything from custom home building to film set design. We've curated breathtaking immersive spaces in some of the most notable commercial buildings in California—including the headquarters of Facebook, Google, Visa, and more. The mission of Muse & Co. Outdoors is simple: To offer camper vans that bring your outdoor adventures within reach through flawless functionality and intuitive design. We hope you love our van as much as we do.
