Earlier too, I brought to you some amazing recycled container architectures. Shipping container structures are seen gaining a lot of popularity in current times. Not only are they beautiful and stylish, but also portable, affordable, durable and eco-friendly. This time I introduce you to a student housing complex built from recycled shipping containers.
Olgga architects, a French firm shaped 100 recycled shipping containers into a sturdy, economical and sustainable student housing in Le Havre, France. Dubbed the ‘Crou’, the 2,851m2 structure is made by stacking the container on top of one another. The project offers individual rooms for the students while maximizing space limitations. There is an environmental benefit associated with it which is it puts surplus containers to use instead of letting them slowly rust in a landfill.
