Using shipping containers to create unusual and bespoke homes has been done before however it normally involves stacking them on top of each other to create a pretty conventional looking square home. But what London-based designer James Whitaker has done takes things a step further with this amazing desert installation.
The 200-square meter house has all the commodities you’d expect from your typical home including a kitchen, living room and three en-suite bedrooms that fit into multiple shipping containers that have all been linked together.
Designed for a film maker who remains anonymous the residence is called The Joshua Tree Residence and is built on the clients private 90-acre plot in California. With construction to begin next year you can guarantee this is coolest shipping container home around. For more info visit Whitaker Studio.
