The shipping container home – wide terraces make a fine transit area to the unspoiled nature outside<\/p><\/div>\n

Supported on metallic piers and lifted above a layer of gravel, the house is made up of two all-black metal containers: a larger unit for the living quarters, and a smaller volume that serves as the artist\u2019s workshop. The main unit overlooks the pastoral landscape through a large wood-lined outdoor patio that spans the width of the home and multiple large glazed openings, the majority of which double as doors.<\/p>\n

Just as the fa\u00e7ade displays a modest appearance, the interior is kept minimalist and maintains an industrial chic vibe. The corrugated metal is left exposed on the ceilings and supported by black metal ceiling beams, while long metal ducts and naked bulbs are suspended from above. The walls are painted white to reflect the natural light and provide a neutral backdrop to the colorful sculptures that dot the space.<\/p>\n

The bedroom, which features rustic looking furniture, is located near the middle of the building and opens up to the north-facing outdoor terrace and views of the outdoors. An open plan kitchen, living, area, and dining room are located on the east side, while a smaller study is placed on the west, completing the living area in the first container. A secondary covered patio on the south end serves as the point of entry, according to the description made by the quoted source.<\/p>\n
