Contaier homes

Apparently, container houses and mobile homes have replaced spacious city homes. That's the first I've heard of people actually living in containers!


"The 2+ Weekend House is a container house with a difference - it's made with containers manufactured expressly for housing (vs. cargo containers)". Right. And that makes it hip, I suppose.


"The 2+ is a two-level mini housing unit composed of two stacked containers perpendicular to each other. The upper container provides a projecting roof above the entrance and also serves to shelter the back terrace. The ceiling of the bottom container is the terrace on the first floor. By enabling its occupants to coshape their compound unit according to their particular needs, ConHouse takes after the inventive automobile industry, where car owners can choose the components they desire, and after the IKEA-developed winning recipe of interior design".


Well, it's not that bad.
