It is also a true way of modern day homes that can be
affordable to all, energy efficient and aesthetically pleasing to the eye. “Reusing of redundant and environmentally
hazardous waste materials provides a plan of action that could reduce need for
extraction and processing of new materials. As landfill waste continues to
increase, most of which comprise of construction and demolition debris, reusing
materials already in sight can vitally prevent landfill growth for a greener tomorrow.”
This project “The containers of Hope” was conceptualized by
the architect himself and self-built by his clients. The house consists of 2 x
12m long metal shipping containers, plasterboard partitions and glass aluminum
doors and windows.
These are some of the pictures explaining the 'Containers of Hope' as they rise one-by-one up in the air to create hope for those in need.
I believe that with the necessary research this can be a possibility for us as well. It is already proven that it not only works but pleases as well.
