G+2 Stepped Villa — 4 + 3 + 3 × 40 FT Container Home (Luxury Tiered Residence) — Full Description

Project Overview

This luxury G+2 stepped container villa is developed using ten 40-foot shipping containers arranged in a tiered vertical configuration — four containers at ground level, three at first floor, and three at second floor. The stepped massing creates a strong architectural identity, expansive terraces on multiple levels, and a refined balance between indoor luxury and outdoor living.

• Number of containers: 10
• Container size: 40 FT each
• Total built-up area: ≈ 300 m² (≈ 3,200–3,250 sq.ft.)
• Configuration: Ground (4) + First (3) + Second (3)
• Floors: G+2 (Stepped)
• Use: Luxury villa, hillside residence, resort suite, premium rental

The stepped form reduces visual bulk, improves natural light penetration, and provides private terraces at every level, making the villa ideal for scenic sites and premium developments.
