New ideas - container atlas, June 10, 2010 ###
The book gives a survey of different types of buildings built with shipping containers around the world. It has a lot of examples (90) of stylish buildings designed with containers. It is beautifully illustrated with many high quality photos and small design plans. The book provides a short description of the buildings and a few simple building details. Could have been more details. But, if you want some ideas for new buildings with shipping containers this book will definitely help you.
Its a must buy. August 7, 2011 ###
This book is one of the best i have ever purchased and would recommend it to anyone, not just people interested in container construction. The book is full of information from number of containers manufactured per year to sizes and styles. There are a great range of shapes and designs from industrial to residential. Amazing.
