After I published a relevant video of the beautiful home constructed from restored vehicle parts, the tour also incorporated a short trip to the architect/proprietors Karl Wanaselja and Cate Leger's backyard studio constructed from a disused shipping container.
Now here's a closer inspection at this awesome structure.

Constructed from a chilled shipping container which was bought for $1800, Karl describes the unit had been made to be insulated, durable and water-tight. By opening up and investing in huge home windows, and slicing the system and ordering it right into a T shape, the happy couple also have humanized it right into a more airy, sunny and fewer rectangular living area.

Lloyd might have asked the validity of shipping containers in architecture to be too toxic, too bothersome and not big enough. But you will find numerous things opting for the Wanaselja/Leger design. First of all, the system had been insulated reducing the requirement for another major material input. Next, the system was an extra-large 40ft so given itself easily to some radical reconfiguration. And third, it's food-grade metal inside a minimum of and so i am supposing this could reduce a few of the concerns around fresh paint toxicity.

Another great video from Fair Companies exactly the same people that introduced us the recording of Wanaselja and Leger's recycled vehicle home an excellent story in regards to a 16-year-old who built a small house for any mortgage-free future as well as an old garage switched stunning small house.
