CONTAINERISED HOUSING
Second-hand shipping containers lend themselves to being recycled and upcycled. It’s increasingly popular to “upcycle” used shipping containers by turning them into housing projects. It is an affordable and eco-friendly alternative to traditional construction.
People all over the world are joining the movement, implementing practices that will lead to healthier living for the planet and its inhabitants.

The main objective is to provide affordable alternative housing units for a permanent or temporary residence that requires little or no on-site building. The house is built in a factory, loaded on a truck, and delivered to the site.
The emphasis is both on its design and efficiency. The floor plan is optimized to pack as much functionality as possible in a small space.
Each unit is built with a single High-cube shipping container (2.89m x 2.43m)
