Description: Whether as single units, piled on top of each other, or placed in a row, covered or cut open contemporary architecture uses shipping containers as extremely versatile elements for a great variety of contexts. This title features contemporary projects that showcase the many functional and creative faces of the utilization of containers.
Synopsis: Shipping containers are the most conspicuous symbol of the globalized world economy 20 or 40 feet of pure steel reduced to the essentials. They are robust, standardized, inexpensive, universally available, and quickly assembled. Whether as single units, piled on top of each other, or placed in a row, covered or cut open contemporary architecture uses containers as extremely versatile elements for a great variety of contexts. Their aesthetic of practicality accommodates minimalistic temporary solutions, experimental design concepts, as well as highly demanding and complex building structures. The contemporary projects presented in this volume showcase the many functional and creative faces of the utilization of containers. Almost everything seems possible in the developing field of container architecture.
