Synopsis:
This book presents a wide range of projects in container architecture – a contemporary architectural phenomenon. It features container structures used as pop-up stores and temporary exhibits as well as sophisticated housing and office spaces that provoke and inspire while setting new standards in functionality and aesthetics. But the book is not only visually inspiring. Because it documents plans, describes associated costs, and suggests concrete solutions for common problems, it is a practical reference for architects, planners, and cultural activists as well as event and marketing managers, to guide them in deciding what types of containers are best suited to their upcoming projects.
About the Author: With years of theoretical and practical experience in the fields of container architecture and modular building, architect and professor Han Slawik and his team have established themselves as international experts in these fields.

Shipping containers are modular, affordable, and virtually indestructible, increasingly utilized for temporary structures like pavilions, offices, galleries, and bars that can be relocated easily. This trend, known as container architecture, is explored in depth, showcasing a variety of contemporary projects and the evolution of this innovative field. The book illustrates how containers serve as building blocks for urban nomads' daily lives and special events, featuring playful and short-term designs that often reflect current trends.

Found in both urban and rural environments, these container structures inspire and challenge conventional standards of functionality and aesthetics. Detailed reports by experts explain the historical development of container use in architecture, document plans, outline costs, and propose solutions for common challenges. The book introduces various container types, from standard shipping models to customized modular pieces. It serves as a practical and inspirational reference for architects, planners, cultural activists, and event managers, helping them select the most suitable containers for their projects.
