The different governments in Africa should use this man to spread out this project to beautify villages and towns throughout Africa. Good job and hope you will multiply those projects in the whole continent.

[@artisthusnatalal3099]

I guess people are aware of such houses. There are too many KZbin Channels with containers houses

[@purpleglitter9596]

And make it safe enough that you don't need barb wired walls.

[@West-moran]

It’s hard to say funds in any other language. I would call them craftsmen.

[@graciouspraise3700]

I think this is a beautiful but expensive structure thus investing on it as a project is a fruit for thought.

[@Lord_Drip]

Communities all over the world can benefit from these type of projects ' I live in California and the cost of living is horrendous to the point you have to work 2 jobs to make ends meet

Amoaa I’m with you on this.. it’s the picket fence for meee… and the romantic place🤣.. I love this project especially how spacious it is for a container housing project. The add on of the recreation areas and greenery makes it spectacular. How do you find these projects again because they are soo amazing 🤩.

[@BuildwithAmoaa]

It's the picket fence for meee 😂 and I am still not over how big that bathroom is for a container home! It's really something special he's created 😊

[@etmacsecuritysystem2023]

Hi, how do I get connected to you?

[@erasersoundtv444]

This is a very beautiful video❤🖤💚 and job well done bro🔥🔥

[@estherofosu8840]

With the cost of building materials skyrocketing,container houses are becoming the next option for affordable housing in Africa, other parts of the developed world have taken the lead already. Thanks Amoaah for the insightful video 🙏

[@aberba]

It's not as affordable as you think. There's a reason it's not popular. It's not as roomy as prefabs...part of why you aren't seeing that many family homes built out of containers.

[@leroybrownjr]

It's a better alternative to concrete for sure

[@lilacer6841]

@@aberba exactly. You can build a two bedroom house for less than the costs of three containers

[@lilacer6841]

@@leroybrownjr really?

[@leroybrownjr]

@@lilacer6841 I think concrete houses cost more to build th there...Spent over $80000 for a mid sized 3 bedroom but it's larger than this one
