You could feel the communication between building space and art. 

The transformation of the whole space is completed under the lower cost. The design of space, furniture and lamps use the material with cyclic regeneration, which also shows the core idea of traditional industry through the creative industry.  

Container Building-Tower For Overlooking Bay

In modern society, the building materials of commercial public buildings, steel structure workshop, modular construction house transformed from containers adopted by mobile house manufacturers includes steel construction, color steel, timber, brick wall. The building decorated with above building materials could better show the designing characteristics, which could shape the style and show the sense of history. The container building project is as follows:

This container building is located in the east coast of Tasmania. There are Demon Horn cellar, observatory, and the largest vineyard in island. The whole scene of Fressies peninsula could be obtained. From December in 2015, this container building built by Brown Brothers Winery is aimed to add to the new scene, creating the new travelling experience in coast. The observatory is the main components of designing. This observatory is not only the optical signal of building also the method of stating the area of origin. The scene could be felt as the wines are tasted. The three different space points to different angles of view- sky, horizon line, various view points and tower. 

The steel structure is the ideal material, because it could be pre-manufactured outside of the base. In this way, the construction time and easy transportation of steel construction become the largest advantage. The base and tower are made up of containers. The reason for choosing containers is that the changeable modular size, structural integrity, the inner mobility of rolled steel and remodeling capacity. There are 10 containers in total. Five containers are used in gazebo and the other five containers are used in the market area. 

The Aldine Container Villa

The Advantages of Factory Building Being Transformed To Centralized Apartment

After issuing the document of urban planning and construction, all walks of life guess the influence of owner, developers, real estate, and management. The opinion of the State Council supports that historic culture should be protected through the rebuilding and utilization of old factory building. Most factories are closed or removed because of pollution and noise produced by factories. It is important to transform the old factory. At present, the application of old factory is centralized in the construction in the center of city. For example, the 1933 Old Millfun needs the support and promotion from the government. The transformation on the old factory is a part of the policy control. 

In the document, the transformation of factory is referred to. The business man also realizes that the government would attach importance to the transformation of old factory. The possibility that the factory will be transformed to centralized apartment is larger. The advantages of transformation are as follows:

Large area makes scale and brand effect easy to form.

Because of the small property fee, the cost of getting the building is low.

The long time of contract could lead to the long period of benefit.

The unique style is attractive to young people.

The old factory in the suburb could be easily transformed to apartments. However, the site selection of old factory is very important.

The Comparison between Mobile House and Traditional Building

Mobile houses can be moved anywhere and anytime, bringing convenient and comfortable life for people. It consists of rigid frame and other steel structure components. It provides electricity by solar panel which supplies heating and water indoor. The sewage disposal system cleans the domestic water, which realizes the repeating utilization. Mobile house can be made of different sizes by mobile home manufacturers according to the number of people.

Site Selection

Mobile house: It has strong mobility, changing places without changing houses even in the suburbs. 

Traditional building: The city center, suburbs are all optional according your own will, but once you buy it , it is hard to change.

Security 

Mobile house: The mobile house has low safety factor, because some mobile house is located in suburb. 

Traditional building: There are hundreds of households in a housing estate, with patrol and high safety factor.

Appearance 

Mobile house: You can design it according to your will. And you can renew it when you do not like it.

Traditional building: The appearance is designed by the developers, you could not change it. 

In general, mobile house has many forms such as steel frame construction building, modular construction building, container building, color steel building. 

What are the advantages of a professional container module house?

Modular construction house is the use of container plate made according to modern housing construction pattern of houses with very high practicability and flexibility have been recognized by the general public in the market, especially in the construction site and field operations, are widely used in temporary living room, the living place is not limited by the high flexibility and its production short time to use. So, what are the advantages of the professional container modular construction buildings?

First, the price is low. The use of housing container module plate materials and traditional building space under the condition of the same area compared to only cost 20% can be, not only has high price advantage and practicability of the high water level to meet some basic housing needs of people's income, and the container building can also take the form of collective rental and repeated use of a large extent to save people's housing costs.

Second, strong liquidity and easy operation. The container modular housing can be adjusted according to the different environment installation locations by splicing form of construction, The utility model can be connected with the iron plate to be convenient for people to carry out transportation and complete the operation of installation and disassemble. A container building also belongs to the mobile house.

Third, the safety coefficient is high. Because for container modular building, mobile home manufacturers adopt iron or steel structure instead of plastic and rubber products such as perishable inflammable materials with low safety coefficient, high bearing capacity and safety coefficient of strong construction material structure is able to withstand earthquakes and storms and other disasters, and such as to reduce the degree of damage to housing is also commonly used in earthquake disaster shelters.

These are the three major advantages of the use of the container module houses. With the continuous development of the construction industry, to use container plate built housing is not only conducive to the construction of temporary residence in different places, and its strong flexibility and liquidity to meet people in different environments and different needs of applications, and has broad prospects for development in the future in the construction industry.

Passive Buildings-Solar Energy Building

With the improvement of people's living standards, a wide range of commercial housing pours out. People have more choices, from traditional residential to mobile house, modular construction house, container buildings, color steel houses, steel structure houses, and then light steel frame construction housing. The housing's continuous upgrade makes people's life more convenient and comfortable. And the current energy efficient buildings market is so hot, showing the trend of leading the new trend of housing. Now, let's talk about the convenience brought by energy efficient buildings.

Josep Bunyesc built a passive building in Spain for his families. There are 3 floors in total, including two floors on the ground and one floor under ground. Compared with traditional buildings, this building could save about 90% of energy consumption, which could keep the indoor temperature at 20-25℃ in whole year.

After continuous adjustment, the orientation of room is optimized. The heat insulation and solar panel, rigid frame and other building materials are used in the building. 

In order to get the performance of passive building, we should do related plan for sunshine, which is as the main heat source.

In winter, the lowest indoor temperature is about 22℃. The solar panel is not installed on the roof, while it is installed in the southern wall to get more sunshine. 

The main components are manufactured in factory of mobile home manufactures. On site, people could install them according to the drawing, which could save a lot of labors.

Tiny House In Canada Coming Soon

At the end of October, one of mobile home manufacturers in New Brunswick brought out the tiny house. And now, one company in Newfoundland also brings out the tiny mobile house. 

This company is located in Grand Falls-Windsor. The owner is Sean Mercer. He has known that demand after seeing these tiny houses. So he decided to start Rollin Cabins company to manufacture and study the tiny house.

This tiny house manufactured by Rollin Cabins has the size as the trailer. The size of length and width is 24R*8.5R. However, the functions are various including a kitchen, toilet and heating system. The energy could be switched between 12V and 120V, which could be installed with solar panel. 

It takes two weeks to make such a miniature house, with a cost of 65,000. The final price depends on the customization requirements of the customer. New Brunswick's miniature residential price is between 59,000 and 79,000.

"This miniature residential is used extensively. It can be used as a standalone unit and can also be used as a guest house," said Sean. "Over the past few weeks, many people have expressed this interest on mini house."

Low Cost Series - Constructions

This is one of the low cost construction projects - mobile house. This project is supported by The Children's Investment Fund to improve the conditions of low income family. This container building is located in a small hamlet of Korea. In this family, there are parents and five kids. Anyway, we could seek the suitable solutions. To save the cost and create larger space, the designer found the materials which could reduce the costs. Most mobile home manufacturers choose container building, which decreases the construction time. However, the insulativity is not better than traditional buildings. At the same time, the noise from floor could not be shielded. Those problems need us to solve. Because the building has single floor, there will be another problem - heat retaining property. The next step solution is that we divide one container building to two parts, that is modular construction. Then the main steel construction of whole building will be created. At last, three insulating layers are set within the house. The new space is created in the building. This project involves in steel construction, container, rigid frame, color steel and etc. These additional areas are connected with nature. They could be opened in summer and closed in winter. Besides an open loft is created. In this way, the kids could enjoy themselves in this building.
