Made from nine shipping containers, this cozy abode has three stories of thoughtfully decorated spaces, including a curated art gallery on the third floor. A comfortable seating area in the living room has colorful furnishings including a sofa from Joybird and bright yellow club chairs from World Market. The raw-edged wood coffee table was hand-made by a friend. With ample wallspace, the owners were able to install the large galaxy art piece in the foyer made up of individual prints by local Firecracker Press. The bench beneath was created by a local artist out of cement and broken kitchen chairs.
Artist Zack Smithey, who consulted on the home’s design, built a wall-mounted “floating” bed that is centered in the master suite. Three small plywood paintings by New York artist Steve Keene hang over the bed. The second-floor shipping containers were cantilevered to create this spacious deck on the front of the house and a carport on the back.
