120 sq ft Triangular shaped shed built on-site at Niu Peninsula on Oahu. Very tricky to build the roof on a triangular shaped structure. Owner opted for our suggested OSB siding with smooth cedar texture. You can see a close up photo of this siding by searching on our site map for "recommended materials".
Nov 2011- Rough-in almost completed on this modified LavaRunner in the Hawaiian Beaches subdivision, Puna. This home could be moved fairly easily if desired. It is a permanent, permitted guest home.
Below you are looking at a 4 container single story home in the Ka’u district of the Big Island that has passed its final inspection and is almost completely finished! Containers are sitting on concrete that was poured up to the level of the interior floors. Since the floors are about 6 inches above grade, if you want your doorways to be level with the outside walkways, this is how you do it. As you can see, the owner opted for lots of glass in the living areas via 8’ and 6’ glass sliders, which are very inexpensive and not hard to install. We are very happy to see it actually get built! We can arrange for people to see it, but only if you are extremely seriously considering building a container home.
Next is a studio apartment made from a 20' shipping container. A crane was required to get it over a 4' brick wall. It features 6' sliding glass doors and a full bathroom. Customer did not want us to photograph the bathroom as it was not yet decorated. There is a 36" x 36" acrylic shower, pedestal sink and toilet, all fit within the space to the right of the sliding glass doors, 4' x 8'. This apartment is fully insulated with drywall and has A/C.

| Below are pics of a recent 3 container project- a 40' for living/sleeping, a 20' for kitchen/bath and a 20' for storage. (We apologize for the picture quality; these are scans of xeroxes.) Note the steel brackets welded to the top of the containers where the customer bolted on rafters for a roof system for all 3 containers. |
