This project using containers as a carrier meets the housing needs of low-income groups,

students and refugees. The design focuses on living around a single

residential unit that can meet all the necessary conditions for a small family.




By using containers as the main structure of housing, it provides assistance to refugees,

asylum seekers, students and low-income groups.

A single residential unit is incorporated into a cluster of 8 houses,

as a small neighborhood space surrounded by a plant courtyard.




基于集装箱隔热性能良好、灵活机动的特性,住宅单元可以适应不同的环境。




Being driven out of their homes due to famine, poverty,

and even political factors can be lively.

Every minute 20 people become displaced. This makes it challenging

to build a stable community that can cope with rapid changes.




Focusing on the container community in the informal market, new open spaces,

public activities, and mobile housing for housing meet

the special needs of the residential area here.




Containers can be combined according to different needs

Not only easy to use, quick to install

More practical and cheap

In scarce resources and disaster-stricken areas

This kind of container construction played a huge role
