Artistic Living in Repurposed Freight Containers

It looks like the repurposed shipping containers I featured previously have some new real estate competition! Cove Park, a Scottish creative enclave that supports an amazing variety of artistic residencies, repurposed freight containers to become residential and studio units for its artists.

Each of the residential “cubes” have their own dining space, kitchen, and bathroom, along with balconies with gorgeous views of Loch Long.  I love the spacious, airy nautical feel that must be a fitting breath of creative air for its artists.

    I have been interested in the possibilities for containers since seeing a huge neglected stack of them sitting in an industrial area in Chicago and thinking to myself… couldn’t they be housing instead of covered with gang symbols!

    These are wonderful!

    Hello!

    I wandered over from Lynne’s blog Tea for Joy.
    Your blog is beautiful and your photos are just dream inspiring! This post on repurposed containers is so much fun! What a neat way to reuse these old things. I see so many of them .I wonder how I could get my hands on a few?

    Nice to “meet” you,
    Jen

    Thanks so much for this great blog; this is the stuff that continues me going through the day. I’ve been searching around for your site after I heard about them from a buddy and was thrilled when I was able to find it after searching for some time. Being a avid blogger, I’m happy to see others taking initiative and contributing to the community. I just wanted to comment to show my appreciation for your work as it’s very encouraging, and many writers do not get the credit they deserve. I am sure I’ll be back and will spread the word to my friends.
