The project is 1,400 square meters of collective low-cost housing for students or single people, four floors high, built on a prefabricated system based on containers and steel structures, designed for urban construction in low and medium density areas, depending on the land available Add or remove modules.
This modular concept can be adapted or built in stages according to different conditions such as business needs or economic budget. One of the associated advantages is the speed of construction, as his prefabricated main structure can be installed on site within weeks. Designed from 6 prefabricated stair blocks and 70 shipping containers, most units have small balconies built into them. This gap between modules also adds dynamism to the overall expression of the building. The system was built on site and the remaining components were prefabricated and installed on site.
The project was conceived as a low-cost building with a modern and contemporary look and feel, with less elements aimed at younger users of the space. Each unit serves as a self-sufficient space for a dormitory studio, bathroom, and kitchenette. The first-floor units have a small yard, and most of the remaining upstairs units have balconies.
Due to the limited budget, the project was conceived as a prefabrication strategy, with modules produced in factories and simply transported to the location and quickly installed, minimizing unnecessary waste. Container buildings, whose shape design and functional features deserve green building design After in-depth consideration and thinking by the designers, the novelty of the architectural design, the low-carbon and recyclable features of the architectural design, as well as the future development and speed model of container buildings are all important features that make container buildings superior to other building types.
