8 × 40 FT Container Home (Same-Level Mega Villa) — Full Description
Project Overview
This large-format single-level container home is developed using eight 40-foot shipping containers arranged on the same level to form a spacious, estate-style residence. The configuration prioritizes horizontal spread, luxury zoning, and seamless indoor–outdoor integration, making it ideal for expansive plots and premium lifestyle developments.
- Number of containers: 8
- Container size: 40 FT each
- Total built-up area: ≈ 240 m² (≈ 2,580 sq.ft.)
- Configuration: Single-level, same-height layout
- Use: Ideal for luxury villas, farmhouses, resorts, or large family estates
The same-level arrangement eliminates vertical circulation, enhances accessibility, and allows generous room sizes with strong visual connections to landscaped outdoor areas.
