Arcgency’s Green-Roofed WFH House is Made From Three Recycled Shipping Containers

<a href="http://arcgency.com/" target="_blank">Arcgency</a> has transformed three <a href="http://inhabitat.com/boxman-studios-doubles-staff-to-create-more-pop-up-shipping-container-buildings/" target="_blank">shipping containers</a> into a gorgeous Nordic-style home in Wuxi, China. The WFH House is an open, spacious home with a sloping <a href="http://inhabitat.com/green-roof/">green roof</a>. The interior joins a single <a href="http://inhabitat.com/tonys-organic-farm-has-a-new-shipping-container-visitor-center-in-shanghai/" target="_blank">shipping container</a> on one side with a stacked set of containers on the other. The sustainable modular home can be customized for specific climates, sites, and layouts.

<a href="http://arcgency.com/" target="_blank">Arcgency</a>'s WFH House uses three <a href="http://inhabitat.com/buckleygrayyeoman-livens-up-a-historic-building-in-scotland-with-a-shipping-container-addition/" target="_blank">recycled shipping containers</a> as structural supports.

The containers are lined with insulation, which is covered with bamboo, effectively concealing the rough-hewn corrugated metal of the storage containers.

The home's central space is an open living room that is filled with natural light thanks to an array of skylights.

<a href="http://arcgency.com/" target="_blank">Arcgency</a> incorporated other prefab building elements into the WFH House to create a beautifully finished home.

The roof is lined with solar cells as well as <a href="http://inhabitat.com/green-roofed-casa-cabeco-rises-from-the-hills-like-a-giant-pumpkin-patch-in-portugal/">lush greenery</a> that provides insulation and filters rainwater

The WFH House can be built easily and cost-effectively, and it's capable of adapting to areas prone to earthquakes or extreme heat, making it a flexible option for modular living.
