You want Corbin Dallas' apartment.
Just watch out for the autowash.
Venting out the side is also more desirable, as sealing perforations on vertical walls is a lot easier than sealing holes in the roof. Gravity shedding water takes care of most of the trouble. A little drip lip attached to the side wall overhanging the seam would help a great deal. Just a strip of angle material epoxied to the skin will do. Angle it too so it drains the way you want.
Stuff folding down from the walls is a great solution. Really think thru the layout and the sequences of your actions living in the thing, so stuff doesn't interfere with each other or you in the 'deployed' configuration. Config for transport, config for working, config for bathing, config for cooking / eating / 'entertaining'.
I've also seen a pop-up 4-seat table built into the floor of a toy hauler trailer box. The legs were a sliding scissor joint like on an ironing board. But in your situation a desk / table folding down from the wall opposite your kitchen / plumbing wall would probably work best. That way it's your dinner table too and you don't have to hold a hot pot of food while you close up the kitchen and deploy the table.
eta look at those combo elevated beds / work space rigs for dorm living for ideas. Also naval under-bunk storage ideas. And also chuck wagon boxes and wall mounted woodworking toolchests. Lots of compact / efficiency / up off the floor solutions to borrow from. Also google 'tambour door'. Would make a nice solution for your shower stuff, walled up in its own box when the shower isn't in use. But a hanging mesh travel toiletry bag works just as well. Also would make a nice solution for your kitchen cooking stuff / spice or knife rack. Sealed up when the kitchen counter is up. Could cram a lot of kitchen into a 48" by 20" counter and matching wall space. RV sink, camp two-burner, slide out cutting board / counter space. Sink on the end and have a slide out counter on the same end that covers the sink when stored, slides over to extend the counter when it's deployed. Slide into / over the shower space. Keep the plumbing really close / short.
