Shipping Container Architecture Of The Future!

Are you tired of working that 9-5 job, working so hard to only come
home to a house that is identical in looks to thousands of your
neighbors. If you are, your like hundreds of thousands of Americans
today. What would you do if there was a way to build a home for a
fraction of the cost of a conventional house. Would you be interested,
well I was. When I was first told about shipping container homes, I
was very skeptical. Figured it was one of those crazy ideas that would
never be practical until I started to do research. Turns out there are
heaps of shipping container homes all over the world. Many have been
built by famous architects and many more have been built by the DIY er
looking for a way to express themselves though their home.The basic
concept is you take a used shipping container which are very cheap
because of the massive surplus. And use it as the building blocks of
your home. It's almost like a giant Lego set. You can basically stack
them in almost any configuration and because of the structural
components of the container. Shapes and designs can be achieved which
would be next to impossible with conventional framing.Other new and
innovative home building techniques include rammed earth and straw
bale homes. Although I should correct myself. Rammed earth technology
has been around for centuries the ancient Romans use to use this
method to construct buildings. Many of which still stand today can you
say the same for you home in 5000 years.
