There are over 300 million shipping containers sitting empty at ports around the world. We love seeing ordinary objects reused in innovative ways. Shipping containers offer an inexpensive, reusable solution to affordable and temporary housing. They stack, they link, they're rugged and versatile. Once transformed, they make a pretty impressive modern home. Here are a few of our favorites.

These shipping container homes are so beautiful. Would like to set up a little complex of them somewhere on the Westside of LA. Someday... :)

ReplyDeleteWow, I really wouldn't mind living in one of those, other than maybe privacy concerns. Maybe I should find some shipping containers in Edmonton..
