Construye tu casa con contenedores | Juan Ignacio Acosta
Hace tiempo que he escuchado a mi socio en bodegamia.com Gary Bedell y a Elias Simon (gran arquitecto y mejor amigo) hablar sobre edificar una casa con contenedores maritimos, si si .. de estos que se usan para transportar mercancias en barcos. La idea parece algo estrafalaria, pero tiene varias ventajas: 1. El precio, un contenedor maritimo Iso 40 está en el mercado de segunda mano por 1.800 € mas o menos, a esto habría que añadir los precios de gruas, soldadura, pintura y aislamiento, asi como solado y carpinteria metalica 2. 3. 4.

Amazing Expanding House Pops Out of Single Trailer
© Mehdi Hidari Badie Back in the dawn of the shipping containers as housing era, nobody thought about using empty boxes and shipping air; because of the cost of the box and shipping, people were playing with folding designs. Designer Mehdi Hidari Badie has taken the idea of the pop-up to extremes with what Yanko calls an "Amazing Modern Mobile Home." Blu Homes should hire this guy or pick this unit up for their home shows; it is sort of an extreme version of their folding homes. Really extreme; there are a lot of panels to unfold, a lot of edges that will need gaskets and seals. Yanko writes: This cleverly compact mobile housing design by Mehdi Hidari Badie has got all the bases covered when it comes to making the most of limited space. It is all rather clever, over triple the size of the basic trailer, complete with exterior decks and solar panels on the roof.

EBS Block | Product
EBS Block is a uniquely designed modular, prefabricated, fully functional portable house created from a 20ft shipping container. Dimensionally, traditional individual container homes can create awkward living/working spaces. Taking into account added insulation, you have a long narrow box with less than eight foot ceiling. To make an adequate sized space, multiple boxes need to be combined. This is not the case with EBS Block as our unique innovative design opens up to be 6 metres long X 8 metres wide X 3.5 metres high and provides a total live-able area of 54m2 which encompasses the pull out bathroom/kitchen on each side of the house. EBS Block is opened via remote control using the integrated mechanical and electrical systems. EBS Block is designed to adapt to harsh terrains and weather conditions, providing a spacious and comfortable living area. EBS is highly transportable as the entire unit is built inside a standard TEU 20 feet ISO HC shipping container. Residential Pricing Standard
