8 × 40 FT Bottom + 2 × 40 FT Top Container Home (G+1 Ultra-Luxury Villa) — Full Description
Project Overview
This ultra-luxury G+1 container villa is developed using ten 40-foot shipping containers, with eight containers forming an expansive ground floor and two containers placed on the upper level. The configuration prioritizes grand single-floor living while reserving the upper floor for exclusive private suites and premium leisure spaces.
- Number of containers: 10
- Container size: 40 FT each
- Total built-up area: ≈ 300 m² (≈ 3,200–3,250 sq.ft.)
- Configuration: Ground Floor (8 containers) + First Floor (2 containers)
- Use: Ultra-luxury villa, farmhouse residence, resort villa, premium rental
The heavy ground-floor footprint enables expansive social and family spaces, senior-friendly living, and seamless indoor–outdoor flow, while the lighter upper level creates dramatic terraces and architectural elegance.
