The popularity of building recycled homes out of old shipping containers is evident. HABODE is yet another company creating these container houses. These ones ship in as a container and the walls and ceilings fold out into a two bedroom house complete with lounge, kitchen and bathroom with the option to add a deck.
Implications - The idea of HABODE is to create something that is not only innovative, but also sustainable and good for the environment. The home is portable, cost-efficient and even suitable for small families. HABODE explains that their homes are "only restricted by imagination and location." The company enjoys the challenge of creating these homes and making the world a greener place.
