Container House Renovation Blogger
There are quite a few bloggers focusing on container house renovations. Here are some representative ones for you:
Mr. Zhou (Online name: 'Pickled Radish Life Diary'): After wandering for many years, 37-year-old Mr. Zhou decided to return to his hometown. He spent 4,000 yuan to buy a standard second-hand container measuring '3 meters × 6 meters' and ultimately spent 13,000 yuan on a major renovation. He transformed the container into a cozy internet-famous cabin with a rustic wood style and green plants, equipped with a projection screen, an open-plan mini kitchen, and a fully functional bathroom. This place serves as both his studio and residence, as well as a 'field rest stop' for his nearly 80-year-old parents. His videos documenting the renovation process have garnered over 8 million views, attracting a lot of attention.
@Spring Family: At the age of 33, they decided to give up their city house and high-paying jobs and move to the countryside with their three-member family. They chose the husband's hometown, Linyi, Shandong, as the location for their new home. Due to village planning restrictions that prohibited rebuilding the old house, they opted for container renovation. The husband personally handled the container painting and interior renovation work, and also handmade the cabinets, tables, chairs, and floors at home. The renovated container cabin became a 'dream cabin', and they shared the detailed process online, receiving countless praises and resonances from netizens.
Niu Jian: At 58, Niu Jian was deeply impressed by many container house renovation cases and couldn't help but get excited. Without telling his wife, he scouted locations everywhere and finally obtained a plot of land with the help of friends. Niu Jian purchased six white steel containers and assembled them in modules. The entire container house includes residential areas, office areas, a kitchen and bathroom, an ecological maker space, as well as a roof and vertical planting areas. It is estimated that the house will cost 300,000 yuan upon completion and cover an area of about 200 square meters.
