Container Residence | The Modular Adaptation of Minimalist Style Enriches Life Quality

@modular future

We yearn for a break from the frantic pace of city life and a chance to savor the simple pleasures of life in the suburbs from time to time. Suburban communities are chosen for their outstanding ambient and air quality as a starting point for container homes, which then acquire plots of land and are eventually showcased in the project.

Leisure living in suburban areas is defined by the use of containers, which are characterized by technological, aesthetic and functional improvements with the ability to adapt to contemporary lifestyles and home compositions. Two metal boxes compose the project's form, with the living room, kitchen, and various storage areas in one container on the ground floor, and the laundry room, bathroom, fireplace, workshop and warehouse in another container on the second level.

Technology, speed, and material minimalism are the primary pillars of the project's design philosophy. In between the two boxes is a BBQ space, a garage, and a living room that can be used by everyone. Traditional solid buildings such as concrete are used on the second level to support the containers and hide the private areas, such as bedrooms and bathrooms. Polyurethane foam, latex painted ceilings, plasterboard-lined vertical walls, and high-performance aluminum windows make up the shipping container's interior, which is then sealed for habitability with double glazing. The house's spatial cohesion is complemented by the floors, which are seamless tiles.

Outside, the house is enclosed by a façade with openings towards the street using steel sheets extracted from shipping containers for privacy of living. Internally, all rooms open to the courtyard, enjoying the best conditions in the north and east latitudes, maximizing natural light and ventilation throughout the day.
