The Honomobar is a bar built out of an old [recycled shipping container](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fjord-floating-sauna), by a company named Honobobo.

Available to be shipped anywhere in North American, the bar features a three-foot cedar overhang, an aluminum roll shutter and a butcher block bar top. The company uses high-quality materials that are both built to last but also offer an affordable price tag. Manufacturing takes between four and six weeks, allowing consumers to customize each bar to their liking. The structure also comes with acid washed steel accents as well as a non-slip floor material.

The Honomobar is available for sale online for $19,765 with everything included except for electrical and plumbing -- as the perfect addition to any [backyard or retreat](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/love-shack-1) every season of the year.
