Container House

Creating a living space from shipping containers always gives a unique opportunity to rethink the basis of house design. The concept was to recycle shipping containers into a family home. The resulted design was assembled of 10 containers (40ft each) into a modern and functional house located on a vast 10000 sqm property at the boundaries of San Antonio, Texas. The modular structure was squeezed between existing trees and lifted 3ft above ground to allow floods passing under the house. The proposed exterior terraces with wide opened glazing gives this house a feeling of being a part of the surrounding nature, erasing formal boundaries.
