Shipping container home — Curbed

Container houses

About 50 percent of Africa’s population could be living in towns and cities by 2030, and this is worrying, considering people might not acquire the needed accommodation to settle in.

Entrepreneurs have come up with unconventional ways of building homes from cheap and durable items like shipping containers.

In Kenya, entrepreneurs like Denise Majani convert shipping containers into remarkably creative residential and office accommodation.

The good news is this comes at half the price of contemporary housing.

Consequently, the cost of building homes is reduced, meaning, more people can afford.
