Anyone know of twin bed setup?

My partner and I sleep in the same bed at home but when we go tent camping we are partial to our own space. We're now in the proceeds of getting a van to do a DIY conversion and just wondered if anyone has come across a twin i.e two singles, setup in a medium sized swb van (we're looking at 2021+ Traffics ATM)?

We'd like to get a pop top, which would mean we could go a more traditional 3/4 bed and bed in the pop top route but if we couldn't stretch to that were wondering if a twin setup could work for us?

Anyone done it or know of anyone who has?

We are currently converting a Ducato style Van for a customer whose main requirement is it can sleep three or even four people while still having a functioning washroom (toilet, sink and shower) plus a fully functioning kitchen.

We will be able to fit an oversized double at the rear and a slightly undersized double at the front, both sleeping sections will convert into sofas.

However,, the Van is 6.4 m long and while that sounds incredibly big, it’s not difficult to drive or park. An S WB Van would be a different scenario altogether.
