CHK™ CONTAINER HOME KIT / LOT-EK (Ada Tolla, Giuseppe Lignano & Keisuke Nibe)

CHK™, Container Home Kit, combines multiple shipping containers to build modern, intelligent and affordable homes. 40-foot-long (13.00m) shipping containers are joined and stacked to create configurations that vary in size approximately from 1,000 to 3,000 square feet (90m2 to 270m2)

Each container is transformed cutting sections of its corrugated metal walls. Joining the containers side by side, the cut-out layout allows for horizontal circulation expanding, at the same time, the width of the container to generate larger living spaces. Double height living rooms are created for the CHK™ loft model, for a more open layout. Incrementing the amount of containers allows the house to expand from a 1 bedroom to a 2, 3, and 4 bedrooms home.

The landscaping around the houses uses additional containers to configure a swimming pool, a pool house/tool shed and a car port.

CHK™ houses can be disassembled and reassembled elsewhere.
