Awesome Tiny Cabin Built with a Single Used Shipping Container - FULL TOUR

Container cabin tour +🌏 Get exclusive NordVPN deal here ➵ NordVPN.com/exploringalternat... It’s risk free with Nord’s 30 day money-back guarantee!✌
The Shiship is a really cool tiny cabin built with a used high cube shipping container. One end was modified to inset a big picture window which brings in lots of natural light and gives you a beautiful view of the forest. The exterior of the cabin is 31' long x 8' wide, and 9'6" tall, and the interior is decked out with custom black cabinetry, unique transforming (and space-saving) furniture like a folding wall table, and a custom sofa bed. It has all the amenities to be comfortable - running water, a fridge and cooktop, a toilet and shower, and a big cozy bed.

This space is minimally decorated because it’s a rental but adding simple touches like an area rug and some plants would make it feel like a cozy tiny home :)

I'd prefer a frosted window in the shower-room. Just how private is that forest!

Hi, i came across your comment on this channel section and I liked how intelligent you are and decided to ask if you’re interested in PORTFOLIO INCOME via gold or the stock market NOTE: THIS AIN’T NO GET QUICK RICH SCHEME

[@teayabern]

I can picture myself living in this tiny home..it's functional and beautiful..

[@adrobbo84]

Nice but I definitely wouldn't of had the bed next to the kitchen, this could have been moved and created separately from each other

[@heartofhearing2000]

That stove & bed placement is definitely not done with real cooking in mind. Oil / sauce / soup splattering can reach pretty far. Not to mention vapors

[@user-tc2hz7me7e]

True,maby need a wall to separate them

Love the wood theme all round

[@containerinterior5529]

This is very beautiful🤩🤩 Especially the inspirational piece of furniture to maximize function and is supported by an interior that feels warm because it uses wooden ornaments Modern exterior combined with wooden ornaments on the front AND one of the advantages of a single container house is that when we enter the house we can reach the service area I really need your assessment of some of the container house designs on my channel, because there are still many mistakes..😭😭

Very clean functional and good looking design, but as others pointed out the bed and couch should be switched. Btw I guess it has solar energy, but what do they do for water? Rain, creek, water delivery or..?

[@sar2020]

I believe if we can transform the king size bed into customize "murphy bed" would be good to utilize the space during the daytime.

[@frankwoods4532]

I like this.

[@daleunderdue6935]

Happy😄 Hello👋! I just subbed to your channel! After I viewed the Treehouse video, I'm hooked! It would be awesome if the Tiny Home Movement reached the East Coast of the US. The rental properties are insane and house prices are ridiculously expensive. At least this way, living life in my city of New York could be affordable for all. Especially with repurposed items such as shipping containers and even out of service subway train cars! That would be mind blowing, to say the least!! Blessings 🙏 to your business, your channel and your families❣

[@ChattieCathie]

I dont know about the bed in that area. I think id rather the bed where the couch is and visa versa

[@lubby6834]

Same,it’s a bit awkward🙊😂

[@suzettecalleja3122]

Also it would get so dirty from all the cooking especially if someone did frying.

[@DavinLewisPRO]

[@ChattieCathie]

@@suzettecalleja3122 thats exactly what i was thinking. I noticed there was no tv. If there was a tv, that wall where the bed is would be perfect for the tv and a couch where the headboard is. They could have put the bed where the couch is and have a pull out bed or a bed that comes down out of the wall

[@albertine2169]

Yes, sleep where it is cosy and dark and lounge where you cook and can look outwards. They could easily change it.

[@sarahpulver9978]

[@markadonis9427]

Hello How are you doing??

[@GregCurtin45]

Thank you #NordVPN for sponsoring this video. A really professionally designed and decorated trailer. The colour choices allow specific features to be enhance. The vertical window in the shower is a genius way to bring natural light into the bathroom. There is even room to add laundry in the future. The dining table is one of the smartest i've ever seen in a tiny home. While there is no need to find fault with this layout the bed would be a nightmare to deal with. Kind of surprised they didn't work in a Murphy bed but make it horizontal instead of vertical. This could be done if the kitchen and dining area were reversed. Thank you Repere Boreal for sharing your properties with us.

[@MatthewdePaula]

I like the aesthetic, the execution and the open layout. Could work for one person living full-time, only if they can manage with the under-seat and kitchen storage for EVERYTHING needed in daily life, including clothes, linens, electronics, books, maintenance items, etc. Maybe there's more storage under the bed? Also curious about provisions for airflow. My personal challenge with such places would be the lack of a clothes washer -- something I lived without for more than 15 years in a major metropolis and never want to do again.

NICe 👍 .. WOW 🤩 .. C combien 💲💵💰 .. et ou est ce que je puisse aller voir 👀 cela 🤔🧐🤨✔️

[@spammeaccount]

That inset window should be an outset

[@suzettecalleja3122]

Did you mention the material they used for the floor. I noticed you said the shower walls and the floor were the same.

[@iamdebmiller]

I believe it is tile.

[@bluevireo425]

Very nicely built...except not a place for long term. The cool pipes under the bathroom sink would eventually become a problem, as one must have a space for things...it would have been better utilized for storage underneath. I also noticed there was almost zero space allotted for clothing...boots...shoes etc...and who needs a Wine Rack?????? This of course is a vacation home...so, not necessary for long term considerations. Beautiful place....made by a 'Team'...etc...

[@annsmith7207]

Hmmm.... the bed right next to the kitchen is really not great. The cooking fumes will be on the pillow cases and everywhere else ...essentially sleeping in cooking fumes ... because it appears the exhaust fan is not powerful enough to remove odors. There are many clever ideas but I would have to rethink the bed. And the clear glass window in the shower -- a personal preference would be three-quarters frosted glass -- you can still get the outdoor effect without full exposure -- so to speak -- unless that's your preference. The benefit of frosted glass is that it does not pick up water streaks! ✨🌞✨

[@mcdibbern9919]

If they made the bed an elevator bed they could maximise the space and have seating at the large window. The sofa looks super uncomfortable unless you’re about seven feet tall!

[@zaynabmallory3008]

Absolutely!! My thoughts as well. Bigger living space with bed up in the ceiling until bedtime.

[@jeffw.6821]

A white floor, inner doors, table, drawer faces and couch would make the space look bigger.

[@cupbowlspoonforkknif]

I would have liked to see some critique. Otherwise it feels more like an ad. The toilet paper dispenser being too far away is an easy one to spot.

[@GarrickVance]

This is almost identical to the Getaway cabins

[@njborunda]

I was wondering if it was that

[@davidtate166]

What's the price to get this if you got the lot . guessing say 5000$ to 10000$ it very simple living unit.

[@dan_mer]

Here in Europe used shipping containers cost the same as brand new living containers and you don't have to insulate or wire anything, so I really don't understand why anyone would use a shipping container that was used to transport some dangerous chemical.

[@RobVespa]

Beautiful. I love it... up until the cost is revealed, which is sadly not included in this video, but I can imagine - Price is very often the kryptonite for "tiny houses" and comparable facilities. It should be noted that this cabin seems designed for use as short-term lodging (such as a hotel model, minus hub resources) (Edit: It is - It is revealed towards the end of the video that this is a vacation rental), which, of course, is very different than a facility intended for extended/sustained living. All this typed, again, I like this building. It's beautiful - and this beauty is enhanced by the location. This video does come across like an ad.

[@douglasharley2440]

lol, if you think tiny houses are expensive, you should see what non-tiny houses cost! 🤣

[@zaynabmallory3008]

Nice! Except for the bed literally in the kitchen.. I think I'd prefer to get rid of the wine storage and build a partial divider wall between the bed and kitchen.

[@jamesengland7461]

Right? Roll over and stare at the dirty dishes in the sink? No thanks.

[@hapaboy0808]

Nicely done. Not a fan of the recessed picture window. It limits the angle of view. It would've been better to either do away with the outdoor recess or extend the bedroom area out to the edge.

[@kgrant3184]

Or. to make it dual-purpose, as an accessible covered deck with furniture that could be collapsed and hung flat on the walls to retain the view, or as a covered plant-growing area, or making those walls at least translucent, etc. I agree, as is, it affects & limits the light/ view (though whilst providing a coccooning effect). and seems to just "frame the view & contain the space", without a clear purpose. Of course, given that this is a TINY home, undoubtedly the actual SIZE of that covered area is quite small - whch of cource NECESSITATES another additional use. Still, the home is very nice! As long it is extremely well-insulated for our very cold winters - and equipped with space for dirty/ wet outer wear to hang and dry neatly (without completely destroying the aesthetic), I'd certainly live there. 😀 Thanks for sharing, and Cheers!

[@ajitneog8624]

Hi from Teok ASSAM India

[@bittetitte4330]

you need long arms to reach the toilet paper

[@bmaddux7838]

Why does everyone point out the retractable clothes line (tiny house videos, rv videos, etc) like its a new innovative feature. These thing have been around for decades and are $15 on Amazon. This isn't new and innovative. Its certainly a nice touch and nice that builders think about adding it, but its always described like the general public has no idea what this amazing thing is. Just seems a little crazy to me. Beyond that, this is a beautiful and well designed tiny home/cabin, and a nice video.

[@jamesengland7461]

I've never seen or heard of it before. But then in my area clotheslines aren't popular.

[@mayamyu]

Beautifully finished. What's negative is the toilet paper, that is to far away from the toilet and that a bear or human can watch you while taking shower. I would need a curtain here.

Not getting the shipping containers fad . Cost too much . It can be done better cheaper . I spent just $4k - built 16'x20' - barn roof with 7ft ceiling in my loft =476 sg.ft. all usable w solar panels ,2 bus batteries and 1000watt inverter. Way more for less and it won't rust

[@jamesengland7461]

Shipping containers are treated for salt water exposure and don't rust either. They're stronger than your bldg and don't have to be built at all. They have their limitations, but your hard work didn't come cheap either.
