The 'Amagansett Modular' is a high-end vacation home that highlights what can be done to achieve impressively chic results while still sticking to a budget-conscious plan. The home was created by MB Architecture from six shipping containers that were transformed into an expansive living space that doesn't skimp when it comes to offering ample space for a family of five to reside in.
The home features 1,800 square feet that includes a total of four bedrooms with three bathrooms, living spaces and a sizable kitchen for preparing meals.
MB Architecture spoke about the process behind the 'Amagansett Modular' saying, "Based on prior experience, we knew that conventional 'stick-build' construction using local labor would be prohibitively expensive. We suggested prefabricating the building off-site; and use of shipping containers to lower cost, ease transportation, and provide the kind of design experimentation that they were open to. Our past work proved that by streamlining this process, we could achieve significant cost reductions."
