Edmonton Real Estate - Homes made from Shipping Containers?

Wow I found this on the Edmonton Journal!  This is a home made entirely from Shipping Containers.  Very inovative and from the video I watched it looks like any other home from the inside.  What an interesting concept.  Although it is not your usual residential home it could definately work in certain circumstances.  

If you have a lake lot this would be a prefect fit in some places and could be built fast.  The price is right!  Housing for students would be a great idea as well.  

I think of all of the people displaced in the floods and fires in Alberta the past couple of years and this would have been ideal for short term housing needs.  

Great Innovation by these two entrepreneurs!  Way to think totally Outside (or inside) the Box!

What do you think of this home?
