Honest industrial language

摘要

The project represents an experiment in low cost, context-appropriate, family housing with the use of ISO shipping containers (seven in phase one - 90 m2 completed 2017, four in phase two - 40 m2 for 2018) facilitating growth over time. The intention is to efficiently use containers in as close as possible to their original state; expressing rather than concealing their robust aesthetic, in order to engage explicitly with the eclectic maritime character of Ringsend, a neighbourhood in the heart of Dublin's container docklands.
