I'm a fellow shipping container house enthusiast! One of the big things that you hear a lot of talk about is insulating these homes. Because lets face it.

Which just speaks to the extreme versatility of this style of construction. So many ways to get creative! Cheers! Nice introductory article. I’m a fellow shipping container house enthusiast!
