AMAZING CONTAINER GUEST HOUSE

Posted on 8/23/2013Posted by Hüseyin Kılıç

The Container Guest House is the first of several projects by Poteet Architects we will be featuring. As a

national award-winning firm, Poteet Architects is best known for their sensitive adaptive reuse of existing

buildings and a fresh, rigorous approach to modern interior design. This project originated from Poteet

Architect’s client’s wished to experiment with shipping containers. She lives in a small warehouse on a former

industrial site just south of downtown. The finished project serves as a guesthouse and is fitted with a

shower/WC and a custom stainless sink. The large steel and glass lift/slide and end window wall open the

interior to the surrounding landscape. The remainder of the interior is used as a garden shed.

Other innovative material choices informed the design: the container “floats” on a foundation of recycled

telephone poles. The deck is made up of HVAC equipment pads (made of recycled soda bottles) set in a steel

frame. The exterior light fixtures are blades from a tractor disc plow—a common sight in south Texas.

Air flows between the roof and the plants, effectively keeping the container in the shade

I sell shipping containers, and will someday build a container house and live in it. You could paint it with

INSULADD, which will reduce the interior heat, or you could coat the roof with reflective paint to reduce

the daytime heat as well. www.contrader.net
