12 CONTAINER HOUSE
# of Containers: 12 Shipping Containers usedBuilt area: 4000 sq. ft. (372 sq. m2) - Adriance HouseYear built: 2003
The 12 Container House is a custom prefab green home created from 12 recycled shipping containers. This "T-shaped" 2-story summer home features floor to ceiling windows, concrete floors, two fireplaces and radiant in-floor heating. It is both ubiquitous and original, small and large, intimate and expansive. Kalkin’s creative architectural arsenal seems to have more corners and secret rooms than any one could every fully explore. Arguably the premiere example of shipping container architecture.
INTERIORS
The home uses the containers partially for structure, supporting a glazed glass structure that envelops the home.
