Shipping Container

Brad  Tomacek of Studio H:T in Boulder, Colorado has designed this beautiful house based on two shipping containers for client, Andrew McMullin.

The house is designed to be completely off grid with solar panels for electricity, passive cooling and a wood pellet stove for heating. McMullin wanted the home to be kept to a modest size for the sake of conserving resources and sustainability. The house will also feature a green roof.

There is an article about the house in the Denver Post and you can find more information on the project on the Studio H:T website.

We'll be keeping an eye out for progress on this project.  More pictures below.
