Shipping Container Architecture via Metaflter by dersins, in Shipping Container Architecture by by Zack Smith
This is a webpage devoted to listing as many examples of people using shipping containers as architectural elements as I can find, in an effort to embolden people to use containers in building projects, when and where doing so is feasible and appropriate. Be aware that containers are not a perfect building material, since they tend to corrode, but they have been used effectively in some cases, especially in areas near saltwater. This is mainly a links page, and I cannot guarantee anything at all about the sites that I am offering links to, but I try to periodically search for and add links that are fresh and offer something useful and interesting, and I remove bad links and projects where information is incomplete. If you have a site worth adding, or experiences to relate in using containers for building, please contact me. Shipping Container Architecture The new, recycled FREITAG SHOP ZURICH, made entirely from used freight containers is ready for stock-in. Great archive. Times decidedly change fast. We seem to enter a period of Do It Yourself based on the recycling of industrial elements. But results remain mostly boxy.
