Compact Portable Houses

The Port-a-Bach Container Home Provides Freedom of Movement

Your home is your world, and with the Port-a-Bach Container Home, a concept created by the Atelierworkshop Architects, you can take that world with you wherever you decide to move.

This home is a compact space made out of an upcycled container unit, giving it new purpose and providing you with a private space that is anything but containing. Each of the sides as well as the front wall, open up to become a patio, a back yard exit and a side door. This literal open concept prevents you from feeling confined or limited in your living space, allowing you to enjoy the outdoors and the world around you. When all closed up, the container provides security and peace of mind.

The Port-a-Bach Container Home uses solar and wind power.
