Corrugated Shipping Containers turned into....
Beautiful, modern homes and apartment buildings.
![]() |
Is it really possible for a hunk of junk to become something beautiful? The answer is a resounding “YES!” Never mind DeKalb Market—Downtown Brooklyn’s brand-new food-and-retail center formed entirely of used shipping containers—the recycled structures are now icons of cool, earth-conscious, and very chic 21st-century residential living. The building movement was arguably sanctified in the pages of modern-design magazines such as Dwell and has already evolved beyond its students-on-a-budget, hippied-out roots. While crafting houses from shipping containers is certainly a money-saving building method, creative architects also aim to find a balance between the practical and the aesthetic."
