In container buildings, the design of roof is very important to the living experience of the house,

 because the insulation of the box roof directly affects the indoor temperature.

If green plants can be planted on the top of the box,

the cooling and beautifying effects can be achieved at the same time.

Green roofs can not only improve thermal insulation in winter and summer,

but also save energy and reduce runoff velocity.

This is the [CMD sustentable] office space in Argentina,

located in the metropolitan design center, participating in the exhibition

of Buenos Aires International Design Festival.

The project was designed by designer gruba,

built by gramila, which is a sustainable building.

As gruba's smallest office project,

this is a research design conducted on the smallest additional space.

A unique working space for 4 people is considered to be built

on the container structure which has lost the function of transporting cargo.

Through drilling holes on different sides of the container,

the best natural lighting effect is found,

so as to achieve the purpose of low consumption electrical appliances to complete lighting.

The interior layer material selected as thermal insulation material

in the box is multi-layer wood, which forms a sharp contrast with the exterior decoration panel.

One side of the office is a lattice cabinet, which can be transparent and beautiful.

This furniture designed by gruba is made of inserts without glue or screws.

It is made of 100% raw materials, which makes assembly,

disassembly and recycling very convenient.
