Low-Cost Container House in South Korea by JYA Architects

Low-Cost Container House in South Korea by JYA-Architects. In this video, we bring you a low cost family house in South Korea built from 3 20 foot shipping containers inside a tent. The home is built from three 20 foot shipping containers. Two containers are used for the living quarters and bedrooms, while a third container accommodates the kitchen, bathroom and laundry spaces. The kitchen container is separated from the other containers to form a breezeway that can be opened to the exterior with barn doors in the outer shell. The breezeway is covered with translucent polycarbonate roof creating a nice well light open space for outdoor living. However, standalone containers were inadequate to insulate the home from the elements and also lacked sufficient indoor free space at only . To remedy this two challenges, a larger barn-like structure with light gauge framing and polycarbonate covering was built around the containers creating “house within a house.“ #LowCosthouse #ContainerHouse #JYAArchi
