Best of all, no worries about the roof flashing. (sorry, couldn’t resist)

Most of the designs I’ve seen look good. I don’t know if I’d want to live on a whole block of them, but who knows.

Hi Becky-

Thanks for your comments. I’m glad to hear you’re welcoming the design to your neighborhood!

Anyone else have thoughts on this?

I live really close to this “container house” in Redondo Beach and it by far the most exciting thing to come along in architecture in a long time. While most other architects are blindly immersed in styles and architectural effects that have very little to do with everyday life and all to do with architects stroking their egos, this project is new, different, and environmentally conscious. recycled containers???? great, save the planet in any little (or big) way you can. It has a lot of style but at the end of the day, and most importantly, it is a responsible design.
