The image showcases an expressive example of modern container architecture — a three-story residential building created from copper-brown shipping containers. The building's facade features a distinctive horizontal rhythm, emphasized by the characteristic corrugated texture of the metal container walls, giving the structure an industrial character.
Particularly noteworthy is the combination of container blocks organized in a stepped composition — each upper level is slightly offset from the lower one, creating a dynamic volumetric effect. The window openings are asymmetrically placed and designed as horizontal ribbon windows, enhancing the building's contemporary aesthetic while providing excellent natural lighting for the interior spaces.
The ground floor contrasts with the upper levels — here the architect used a combination of a concrete base with transparent garage doors, visually lightening the massive structure. The garage with panoramic glass sections becomes a functional design element, creating an interesting interplay between transparent and opaque surfaces.
When designing your own container facade, several techniques from this project could be adopted: utilizing the original texture of corrugated metal as a decorative element; creating dynamism through volume offset; contrasting combination of materials (metal, glass, concrete); using large window openings to balance industrial aesthetics with comfortable living; incorporating building numbers or address indicators as part of the design (numbers 45 are visible on the facade).
