Studio HT  - Shipping Container House - Colorado
This project questions the need for excessive space and challenges occupants to be efficient. Two shipping containers saddlebag a taller common space that connects local rock outcroppings to the expansive mountain ridge views. The containers house sleeping and work functions while the center space provides entry, dining, living and a loft above. The loft deck invites easy camping as the platform bed rolls between interior and exterior. The project is planned to be off-the-grid using solar orientation, passive cooling, green roofs, pellet stove heating and photovoltaics to create electricity.

Shipping container office building

The Box Office was constructed from 32 shipping containers in Providence, Rhode Island, on the former Harris Lumber site. The container building consists of 12 studio/office spaces. Joe Haskett from Distill Studio created the design and the project was developed by Truth Box.

Among the many green features are:

• using recycled containers;
• a super tight, well-insulated exterior with high thermal performance doors and windows;
• high efficiency heat pumps (air source) in each unit;
• ERVs (energy recovery ventilators) to provide fresh air and to conserve energy;
• solar panel array (10 KwH) on the roof (the building is "all electric").

The Box Office uses 22 KBTU/sf/year, or about 25% of a "typical" office building.

Windows location is strategically designed to provide the most indoor daylight with the most effective openings sizes; the result are well-lit and comfortable interiors with superior air quality in the units, even though the Box Office is nestled between a major urban roadway, a train track and a highway.

This house is constructed from six recycled shipping containers. The 2,000-square-foot single family-house includes 2 lofted sleeping areas, 2 baths, an office, studio, storage room, and small green house. It received an award from the Coconino County Sustainable Building Program in 2010.


The containers have been pre-fabricated in Phoenix and trucked to the northern Arizona site for their placement into the project.
