Really cool shipping container conversion of Stephen Schoup’s firm buildinglab in Oakland.

Schoup brought in two shipping containers and arranged them together in an L-shape to create a permeable courtyard which opened the house up to the surrounding views and the sun. He and his wife planted a row of bamboo along the eastern edge of the property to give the space definition and to block the views towards the neighbor’s house.
