6x 40 FT Shipping Container Home - Curitiba, Paraná, Brazil, - Delta Containers, Danilo Corbas,

6x 40 FT Shipping Container Home - Curitiba, Paraná, Brazil, - Delta Containers, Danilo Corbas,


made from shipping containers will be unveiled. The 240 square-meter house is located in a horizontal condominium in Curitiba’s Orleans neighborhood. Besides being more ecological and more quickly constructed, the total cost per square meter is 20 percent cheaper than traditional construction methods.
Developed by the Paraná-based company Delta Containers and designed by architect Danilo Corbas, the house consists of six 40 square-meter “High Cube” type shipping containers, each measuring 12 meters long by 2.90 meters high. They were then modified at the company headquarters in Campo Largo to include windows and doors, and finally unloaded by crane into correct position for installation.

Kathy Tafel, KTainer, - California - 4 Shipping Container Home

Kathy Tafel, KTainer, - California - 4 Shipping Container Home

I like the 24' length. It divides into spaces really easily - in half, thirds, fourths, sixths, and twelfths. A 20' container naturally divides in half, fourths, fifths, and tenths. I really like harmonic thirds. Having the high cube means 9' 6" ceilings. Many homes only have 8' ceilings in places.

Putting the four together, half the space is public, half private. The public half are two containers next to each other for living, kitchen, and dining. The private half are stacked on top of each other, for bedroom, half-bath, study and guest sleeping. The two sections are joined together with an 8 foot overlap, or, in thirds.

The long side of the house is then 40' long, and 24' wide, a nice 3/5 ratio. The long side of the house will face north-south, the short side east-west, for maximum passive solar optimization. Also the tall side of the house shades the living quarters for the better part of the morning.

High Country Green Boxes, DwellBox - Boone, North Carolina - 2 x 40ft Shipping Container Home

They cut two 40 foot shipping containers in half and stacked them in a square. The project was completed in 34 days after breaking ground at a construction cost of under $100 per square foot. The two-story structure was their learning project so they kept it small.
The house has one bedroom and one bath upstairs with 320 square feet of heated living area. Downstairs is another 320 square feet that is unheated for storage and a garage. Shipping containers come in 20 foot lengths but are only eight feet tall. The group used 40 foot ISBU's for their nine and one half foot ceilings for more headroom. Corner castings secure the containers to three foot deep concrete piers instead of a foundation.
