Shipping Container Cabinets

The Shipping Container Storage Cabinets Add an Industrial Touch

— March 23, 2016 — Art & Design
Bringing a miniature touch of industrial design into the home, these Shipping Container Storage Cabinets are designed to look and operate like the real thing.

Although not a repurposed shipping container, the attention to detail and operation of the doors would have one thinking otherwise. Outfitted with a series of levers that operate the locking mechanisms, the miniature cabinets are ideal for children's rooms and other places in the home in need of small storage solutions.

Available for purchase from Smithers of Stamford, the Shipping Container Storage Cabinets offer a quirky vintage aesthetic without having to actually repurpose a real container. The interior space features two shelves for storing toys, documents or whatever else to keep it safely stored within.

3. Small Storage Solutions - The trend of seeking small storage solutions for compact living spaces creates opportunities for designing innovative and space-efficient storage cabinets.
