Roundup: Street Container Cafes Influencers Love to Check In At (Part 1)

The Qatar World Cup, which cost about USD $30,555,555,556, became the most expensive World Cup ever. To host the influx of fans, 30,000 rooms were built. While many of the buildings put up for the tournament were pioneering in design and function, people soon noticed that lodging at USD $200 a night looked like shipping containers in the desert — row after row of containers that went viral.

How World Cup organizers reused containers mirrors a global wave of inventive container architecture. Containers are now used across many fields and given new life. Today we look at street-side container cafes that catch the eye and have become must-check-in spots for influencers and passersby.
