    I liked the initial novelty of repurposing those things, but the majority of these - in this thread - would probably be cheaper to build without the container. they look as if the designers only use a container so they can be all, "look at my awesome container build!"

    • I think a major point in using containers is they are strong as fuck, storm resistance on a budget.ZOOP
    • For many this is not a novelty, up recycling, 40-60-% cheaper than building a traditional house, and weather proof.organicgrid
    • The cost is comparable to regular stick construction. By the time you clean, insulate, cut, etc., you'll exceed regular costsformed
