Lets see those low level kitchens!

Lets see what you've got................ 
Can I ask, is that low level in order to do things from a seated height and not necessarily needing a pop-top to stand ?
Van furniture do some
Think my first post is a Van Furniture one
Yes and no. I won’t be going pop top this time around but it’s mainly for the clean/clear look. I also really want a Halo roof and full height units would look weird I think
Thank you.
I am currently installing a full length low level Kitchen
I bought and installed an EVo design 5.5 front section for my T5.1 in 2017. I have a Cali sliding bed, so this meant I could lift the home made multiflex board or even take it out and slide the bench right forward and have a full width load area for mountain bikes (4 people & 4 bikes). In its normal position the Cali bed is back against the multiflex board and far enough back so I can open the drawers. The whole furniture unit is far enough back to accommodate my long legged drivers seat position.
I am refreshing the van and am adding the rear 800mm run of low level cabinet.
I have decided to go low level because the front section worktop is the hob and top loading fridge door. This means when preparing food & using hob & fridge I dont have any spare worktop. I may also use that top for a Microwave and / or Airfryer. I might even have the rear windows installed.
I am making the new cabinet so the bottom 50cm is accessed from the rear to contain a 16 lt water bottle & other stuff. The top 25cm will be accessed by flapped worktop. I am avoiding using a tambour because they do take up space when rolled up. I am using a Van Furniture full length back panel and making and fitting cupboards above. here is a couple of pictures from 2017. Sorry no current pictures.

Thats helpful, thank you.
I am also considering the first part of the kitchen being higher than the back. Ideally, I'd love the back end of the kitchen to be the same height as the bed. BUT, im undecided on that and might just go same height all the way through (this is probably more likely tbh)

I think the Youtuber UrbanArkOverland did something like that on his last van?
This has worked well for me down the years. The top loading fridge does dominate the van, but last couple years on longer trips I have run it as a freezer and decanted meals/dogs dinner into a decent coolbox.
Yeah I've seen Aidens set up, its perfect with the Mobiframe. Budget allowing, Id want exactly the same
Not sure what the etiquette is about tagging other people but Gunship has a lovely van with a low level kitchen -
"Stealth" full camper conversion.
