Container Homes Are Surging in Popularity
Gary Fleisher, a leading observer of the offsite housing construction industries, recently penned two articles about the surging popularity in container homes.
In Gary Fleisher's most recent August 2023 story he states, “In the evolving world of sustainable architecture, a growing trend has been attracting considerable attention: container homes. These uniquely designed residences, crafted from shipping containers, are gaining traction for their affordability, durability, sustainability, customizability, and portability.” Read Gary’s entire article here.
In May 2023, Gary wrote about how “Container houses have gained popularity in recent years due to their affordability, durability, and eco-friendliness. They can be designed in various sizes and styles, and can be customized to meet the specific needs of the homeowner. They are also relatively quick to build, since the containers themselves are already structurally sound and require minimal modification.” Gary’s full story is here.
