Greetings from Around The World! 🙂
Happy 2019 everyone! In 2018 we saw an abundance of impressive shipping container homes made with containers. From tiny houses to cabins to unique builds made by families. So many innovative new builds came out of 2018! So we checked with our Google Analytics and here were the most popular 18 homes on our blog. Surprisingly, you guys LOVED all the exclusives we featured!
Take a look and enjoy! 🙂

#14: CDB2016 SHIPPING CONTAINER HOME
Said to be the first shipping container home in Cordoba, Spain, the 1280 sq. ft. house was designed by Francsico Carmona of Futurevo Building.
This one was an interesting one to research. A lot of translating but worth it because we at Container Home Hub really like to showcase all different types of shipping container homes. No one can argue that this shipping container home owner loves a lot of shed space. The entire second floor is an open garage!
#12: VALDIVIA VIVIENDA SUSTENTABLE CONTAINER
Another incredible Container Home Hub Exclusive! Jorge Cardenas Jara, the architect of this shipping container home, shared with us the home he built with his father.

Situated on nine acres of fields and woodland, this shipping container house is tucked into a secluded oasis a mile from the hamlet of Tivoli, New York. This house was designed and built by Arnaud Cornillon as a model for sustainable living.
#10: POINT LOOKOUT SHIPPING CONTAINER HOME
On Airbnb, you can rent this entire house for $450AUD or $347USD. With enough space for 9 people this seems pretty sweet!
#9: THE TORONTO CONTAINER HOUSE
A true exclusive, this is Toronto’s very first permanent shipping container house! The City of Toronto sold this 12′ wide lot, adjacent to a laneway, to the Owner. The Toronto Container House that is currently circulating on Instagram was a collaborative project.

This stunning container residence made its rounds on social media, and thankfully Brandon from One Way Construction gave us at Container Home Hub the exclusive on these spectacular photos! Said to have taken about 18 month (lots of welding and fabrication) to complete, The Cascadia Container Residence definitely worth checking out.
#3: CALLICOON CENTER SHIPPING CONTAINER HOME
If this house doesn’t wow you, I don’t know what will. This shipping container home is impressive! Located in Callicoon Center, NY, Amy Fisch describes the two-bedroom, two-bath home that she shares with her husband as “centrally located in the middle of nowhere.” Constructed of four side-by-side containers, the house has west-facing views and resembles a wood-framed barn.

Students at the Missouri University of Science and Technology refurbished three disused shipping containers to build a house that proves zero-net homes can be affordable and reliable.
