Poll question: Would you ever live in a house made from shipping containers?

Styles can vary, or course.

1. Depends on what the inside is like.

It looks sturdy. If it's nice inside, why not?

4. The inside would be as nice

as you made it ...

2. With more windows and a better paint job, that wouldn't be half bad.

I'd also curtail the "juts" a little, but the idea is kind of cool.

3. Very fun, where is that?

[Trajan]

5. This seems excessively larrge ...

Those in the Tiny House movement have offered a number of designs using containers .... They can offer economical housing with a small footprint ... two, three, four, in arrangements that permit communication between sections ....

7. Have you thought of how many

deadly chemicals were carried on some of those cars? If they were safe, then yeah.

8. I am starting my conex cabin this summer, was rained out last year.

That pic is actually of an office/arts complex.

9. I read that there is a glut of those things in the US

because of all the crap we are importing from abroad. And our main export (jobs) don't need containers to move overseas.
