The Shipping Container House was designed by the Boulder based studio Studio H:T. This 1,517 square foot residence was completed in May 2010 and is located in Nederland, Colorado, USA.

Shipping Container House by Studio H:T:

“This project questions the need for excessive space and challenges occupants to be efficient. Two shipping containers saddlebag a taller common space that connects local rock outcroppings to the expansive mountain ridge views. The containers house sleeping and work functions while the center space provides entry, dining, living and a loft above.

The loft deck invites easy camping as the platform bed rolls between interior and exterior. The project is planned to be off-the-grid using solar orientation, passive cooling, green roofs, pellet stove heating and photovoltaics to create electricity.”
