Incredible Looking Home Made Entirely From Shipping Containers

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.
