Six Container Houses in Beijing

Admin September 17, 2026

There are cases in Beijing where six containers have been used to build houses, and there are also businesses related to container-modified houses in Beijing. Details are as follows:

Actual Construction Cases

  • Case of a 55-year-old Uncle: A 55-year-old uncle created a dream home of 200 square meters using six containers. Each container is approximately 15 square meters, so the combined area of the six containers is about 90 square meters. With the planned yard, the total area reaches 200 square meters. This construction method makes full use of the space of the containers and, through reasonable planning and design, creates a house that meets living needs.
  • Case of Niu Jian, a 53-year-old Uncle Migrating to Beijing: Niu Jian, a 53-year-old uncle migrating to Beijing, also built a 200-square-meter house using six containers. Each container has an area of 14.7 square meters, so the combined area of the six containers is about 90 square meters. With the front yard area, the total is about 200 square meters. The house has clearly defined functional areas, including a residential area, an office area, a kitchen and bathroom, an ecological maker space, as well as a roof and vertical planting areas, with a construction cost of 300,000 yuan. This shows that container houses can not only meet basic living needs but also achieve diverse functional layouts, and the construction cost is relatively controllable.
