Architectural Designs For An Amazing Looking House Made Out Of Shipping Containers

Believe it or not people are starting to live in shipping containers by choice, and as the Stacks from Ready Player One become a reality the humble shipping container proves it can do more than just carry goods.

Most shipping container homes are located in urban areas, but when architect James Whitaker was hired to design an unique shipping container house in the California desert his designs proved they look cool no matter where they're built.

London-based architect James Whitaker was hired by an unnamed Hollywood film producer to design a 200-square meter home that would fit in with the beautiful desert terrain near Joshua Tree National Park.

He succeeded in creating some incredibly realistic renders of a desert flower of a home he's calling The Joshua Tree Residence:

The 200-square metre house, which includes a kitchen, a living room, and three en-suite bedrooms, is made from several conjoined shipping containers set at various different angles, creating the illusion of a flower blooming in the desert or a structure more akin to another world entirely.

WE did a lot of work on our od 2 story wood frame house back in CNY. When we sold it after moving to SW FL, the real estate agent had it listed as "Dream House" in the paper.

The very first home made over on the very first home-makeover show was in my neighborhood. Had a few drinks with the owners. In many cases, no work was done. For example, Light fixtures and plumbing were attached to walls and not connected to anything.They were given $50,000 and told to keep quiet.
How did I find out about this? After the $50K was delivered, what was the point to keeping quiet?
