Shipping Architecture

Future Shack

Architect: Sean Godsell

 Positive aspects:

- Affordable, cost efficient

- Self reliant ( Solar powered )

- Roof design, Ensuring protecting in heavy downpour

- Foldable furniture, Table, Bed etc.

Negative aspects:

- Wind protection needs improving, Roof can act as "umbrella" lifting the structure off ground.


-Extended living, the design is smart and cheap but if a family has to stay fro and extended time I imagine the living area and lack of interior design will prove stressful.

Luxurious Container

- Comfortable Living

- Extended stay is not a problem

- Lack of protections against elements: Wind, Rain & ground f.e
