This is Germaine’s double shipping container home in Tasmania that she had built after her divorce. Her sons live in the “big house” next door, and she has this private space built over an existing carport. It’s built out of two containers set at a 90-degree angle, with a spacious covered porch in the middle where she loves to entertain.
Speaking of entertaining, Germaine requested a large kitchen with full-sized appliances and plenty of bench space so she can prepare delicious meals. Her bathroom has a walk-in shower and flushing toilet, and she has a cozy bedroom with a walk-in closet! What a fun space to live.
