Publisher's Summary

The trend to make shipping containers into fantastic homes has been a concept that's been used for almost two decades now. They are a convenient design concept that works well with the tiny home movement.

There's a lot of flexibility when it comes to designing one of these homes, whether you are going for the tiny home or a unique modern design concept.
