When Avani Zaidi was planning a home for her new family in Uplands, California, she decided that she wanted to build something eco friendly using recycled shipping containers. She asked the Claremont Environmental Design Group for help and they came up with a design based around four 40 ft high cube shipping containers and one 20 ft standard size shipping container.
The house should be finished by the end of November this year. Avani is blogging the construction process and has lots of pictures, videos, plans and links to vendors on her site. It's a real gold mine of information for anyone planning their own container house.
