An illustrated celebration of architecture using shipping containers as modular building elements, resulting in affordable moveable and sustainable prefabricated homes. Architecture with containers is a form of sustainable architecture creating a very peculiar aesthetic from recycled material. It is a construction procedure based on the assembly of modular elements, in this case, containers used in maritime and rail transport of goods. They are robust, durable, economical, easily transportable, adaptable and sustainable. Their versatility makes them adaptable to the most diverse scales and needs: single-family and collective housing, shopping centres, offices, schools, hotels, restaurants, shelters, laboratories and works of ephemeral architecture.

Industrial style or "industrial chic" refers to an aesthetic trend in interior design that has been popular since the start of the 21st century and which takes inspiration from old factories and industrial spaces that in recent years have been converted into lofts and other living spaces. Components of industrial style include weathered wood, exposed brick, industrial lighting, fixtures and concrete. Old factory spaces are often characterized by their spaciousness, high ceilings, large windows and special finishes. This guide to interior design sets out to convey the atmosphere of the industrial style and how it influences contemporary interior design in domestic and hospitality settings.
