Lisa Li’s Blog: Sliding house & ship container

The roof and walls of this family home move on rails, transforming the hall into an open-air couryard and the living quarters into a double-height conservatory. The 28-metre long mobile structure fits like a sleeve over the main house, the guest annex and the paved yard that separates the two.

I manage to draw on the experience of the Sliding House that design by dRMM for my first project. Intuitively, the space can be enlarged though this method, like "drawer". Therefore, i don't worry about how to usetilze the small space, which is less than ten square metres, with kichen in it. I considered the material that used for " Kiosk".Finally, i think ship container is the best choice that i don't want to miss. Beacause container architecture is an alternative approach to the refabricated building. It is quick to setup and low-cost and offer custom, eco-friendly solution.
