Architectural Excellence : A shipping container has been modified to create one hip,
temporary store. The bright orange, white and natural wood styling lend a fun, vibrant and eye-catching look. The subtle patterns in the design add a vibrant spark, with appealing modern furniture. Simple touches such as the trimless seams are appreciated, especially in a small space like this, to keep everything looking clean. Raising the floor, creating the large window layout go a long way to make the space feel more open. The patio add to the charm and overall cohesive planning. Outside it looks solid and strong, but inside it is warm and cozy.

Cost Energy Effectiveness : The in house design and built allowed for design optimization for both product and production and respect the clients budget. The longer life span, thanks to the container structural integrity, and the low transport cost, due to the ability to transport the unit using existing intermodal shipping system, in combination with the ease of install makes the unit excel in low operational and maintenance cost.

Technical Innovation : The confined space challenged the design and production crew fitting in a fully autonomous plumbing and HVAC system, security systems to a banking standard and ADA accessibility, while maintaining the highest level of architectural finishing and interior. Where the container is given a second life it's structural integrity allows for an extended life span for both exteriors and interiors. The factory built environment allowed our production team to build, install, test and prep for transport in 24 working days.
