Living in a Container?

cargo container, stucco, super-structure, trendy, vinyl siding

Question : Who wants to live in a home that looks like a Cargo Container?

Answer : Most of the homes do not look like a Shipping Container. The Aloha Block Module is merely a super-structure shell. It can be covered with any surface, wood, stucco, vinyl siding, or anything else or a combinations of those.

Moreover, the Cargo Container look is also becoming a bit trendy and some prefer all or part of the home to remain natural -- it can be any look you want when finished.

Quik House by Kalkin & Co.

One new trend in cargo-container architecture is the emergence of kit homes that use some of the high-concept ideas of earlier experiments in the form.

Architect Adam Kalkin, for example, recently announced production of the Quik House, seen here in a rendering, made from shipping containers.Kalkin calls the Quik House "the perfection of the modular building block."

While the Quik House can easily be used as a single dwelling, Kalkin says a client in New York is interested in adding one of the units on his roof to avoid disturbing neighbors with noisy and lengthy construction.
