Day 226

From a cold shipping container to a warm home

A shipping container was transformed into a home by a team of volunteers in just 3 days and donated to a homeless family as part of the Ripple Container Homes Project in Ireland.

 

 

 

“It took over 60 contractors to build the container – a single storey 40-foot by 10-foot unit - over a three day period during November 2014, after which it was exhibited at the Irish Museum of Modern Art for a month. It was then donated to SVP, which uses it for its current purpose, a refuge for families.”
