Located between northwestern Mexico and the Baja California peninsula,

the Gulf of California, also known as the Sea of Cortes,

is a UNESCO World Heritage Site whose crystal-clear waters

have been used by ocean explorers Jacques Cousteau called it the "Aquarium of the World".

The greatness of nature lies in the fact

that it can make human beings feel quaint and happy in the most primitive way,

so they will ultimately seek the "Xanadu" in their hearts throughout their lives.

This building not far from the Sea of Cortez is a container house

used for leisure and vacation by the sea.

The "T"-shaped structure is very eye-catching.

【Casas-Baja】The prime location of luxury container houses

 is spread over the coast of one of five kitesurfing locations,

providing residents with eco-friendly quality accommodation.

Residents can indulge in the bounty of nature on

this nearly unspoiled sandy ground overlooking the Sea of Cortez not far away,

with deep blue ocean views in stark contrast to the arid desert landscape.

It can be said that the front and top terraces of

the container house are designed for viewing.

The spacious area and the huge sliding door provide an open outdoor space.

Made of stacked modified shipping containers of type 2X40STK,

the building shell is painted a sea blue that blends with the sea,

and the lower floor is used as living room, kitchen and bathroom.

The living room and the spiral staircase are set at one end of the container on the ground floor,

and the open kitchen is located in the middle, facing the vestibule terrace,

fully equipped with appliances and kitchen utensils, and the bar and wall cabinets are made of solid wood.

The bathroom is located at the other end of the container on the ground floor.

It is mainly designed in a minimalist style.

The walls and floors are covered with moisture-proof tiles,

and it is equipped with a separate shower.

Going up the spiral staircase leads to the container on the second floor.

This container is only supported by the container

on the ground floor and another steel bar as a fulcrum, but it is the space for two bedrooms.

The two bedrooms are located at the two ends of the container,

and the three-sided box walls surrounding the bed have been replaced with

panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows, offering panoramic views.

The room is not large, only a bed and a wardrobe can be accommodated.
