natural landscape.<\/p>\n<p>Clients made the very bold choice of exploring the possibility of creating a very inexpensive house made out of disregarded shipping containers that allowed them to be debt free and live the life they always dreamed of.<\/p>\n<p>Architects says, &#8220;It was important for me to provide them with the sunrise, the sunset, the spectacular views, and overall try and create a feeling of comfort and home.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>A roof between the two containers, made from the scrap pieces of metal taken to make the windows, not only creates an internal sensation of openness but also provides a cross ventilation which is surprisingly sufficient enough to never have to turn the air conditioning on.<\/p>\n<p>The final cost of the house (40,000USD) is lower than the cost of social housing provided for the poor in Costa Rica.<\/p>\n<p>Perhaps this project begins to expose the importance of design as a tool to provide beauty and comfort with a very low budget in the 21st century, whilst using creativity to not only redefine a scrap material such a disused shipping container, but perhaps to even show that there are viable, low cost, passive alternatives of temperature control to adapt to a very intense tropical climate.<\/p>\n<p>Already this proposal has began to spark a great deal of interest and could become one alternative to solve the issue of disposing of disregarded shipping containers in developing countries, as well as begin to solve the large gap which first time buyers encounter when purchasing a home.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Follow us for wonderful
