Container house on Tuesday

--Brazil today--

For those looking for more sustainable, cheaper housing than masonry,

Container is a perfect substitute. In the process of construction, it will not produce any waste,

When you cut a hole in the container, you can continue to use the cut material to make a terrace or door.

This allows you to build a container house with the budget of building an ordinary masonry building.

The container house introduced today is from novo Fribourg, Brazil.

It is the property of Carlota Carvalho, a 44 year old businesswoman,

She bought three containers from Kaju port in Rio de Janeiro for $1860 each,

And use them as raw materials for housing. The construction

lasted five months, creating 274 square meters of living space,

And has the spacious vestibule terrace and the second floor balcony.

In order to build containers and create space, the building uses steel

frame galvanized steel structural lining,

This makes it possible for the container to be converted into a brick

 and stone appearance and to create greater living space.

There are waterproof and insulation layers in the building, and

the walls are covered with plaster. The internal space is completely opened up,

The living room is set in an environment with two side windows, with excellent viewing angle.

The dining room and kitchen are located in another container space.

The main color is black, white and gray, while the tables and chairs are compared

Logs with texture add warmth to the space. The kitchen area is enclosed by a bar,

There is also a row of small windows on the box wall,

which makes the originally closed wall have outdoor vitality.

From the middle of the house, you can walk up the stairs with wooden blocks

as pedals to the panoramic bedroom on the second floor.

From the symbolic wave board wall, you can feel the industrial charm of

container building materials, a simple line beauty.

The whole bedroom is equipped with a large area of floor to floor

glass windows, and there is a glass balustrade balcony with unobstructed vision,

It's too "immortal" to wake up in this beautiful scenery every day!
