: Chuck NewtonA Simple Container Home Or Office
By Chuck Newton
We have discussed here before, but sometimes you just need examples. If you are in need of additional space for your home or an office, or for living space so you have a place in your home for an office, or even a small off-site location to operate your law practice, you might consider a simple structure built mainly from shipping containers. It can afford you a cheap, comfortable and reliable place to work.
The one, as shown on Jetson Green, is out of Bangkok, Thailand, but it could just as well be Houston, Texas. It is a one-bedroom, one bathroom home built using two, 20-foot containers with cutouts for windows and doors. But, it could just as well be a small office, just big enough for a waiting and reception area, a private office and bathroom. You can add some size cheaply by simply adding additional containers. You can find used shipping containers for a couple or three thousand dollars each. You might need a little expert help depending on your skill set and sense of adventure, but as you can see below this structure if very basic.
This building features a roof layer that's raised above the home. It offers shade to the building and allows for passive ventilation to keep the inside of the structure cool. It also looks good.
It is undoubted something you should consider.
