The New Orleans Shipping Container Home

Hey there, guys! So, I came across this super cool container house design that I just had to share with you.

Now, let’s talk about the stunning shipping container home in Rousseau St, New Orleans, currently listed on Zillow for $799,500.

This one-of-a-kind property boasts 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms all within a spacious 1.885 sqft square feet of living space. The industrial-chic design is both eye-catching and functional, with features such as:

Floor-to-ceiling windows for ample natural light
An open-concept living area perfect for entertaining
Energy-efficient appliances for reduced utility costs
A gorgeous kitchen with custom cabinetry and high-end finishes

The design of this container house is really excellent. Although it is not a very conceptual design in terms of design, I think the imposing decor on the house is the biggest detail that adds value to this house.

At first glance, you might not even realize this sleek, white beauty is actually a container home – it’s seriously impressive!

The brains behind this incredible creation is JC Patin, a firm that’s been around since the 1940s. They took eight shipping containers and transformed them into this stunning house by cutting out the sides and expanding the space with wood.

Now, let’s dive into the interior of this one-of-a-kind home:

First off, it’s surprisingly spacious for a container house and the decor is just gorgeous.

As soon as you step inside, you’re greeted by a crisp, white paradise that flows throughout the entire home. Seriously, everything is white – walls, ceilings, furniture, windows, carpets… you name it!

But don’t worry, they’ve kept some sections of the original shipping container exposed, adding pops of color and texture.

Personally, I think the overall interior design is top-notch, but hey, that’s just my opinion. I’m sure some of you might disagree, and that’s totally cool!
