This shipping container office, created by Copenhagen-based Arcgency, is quite literally Made to be Moved. The office's name is in fact 'Made to be Moved' and it's designed to be easily dismantlable and movable to different locations. This functionality renders it quite useful in the often inhospitable Scandinavian climate.
The issue with most shipping container buildings is lack of insulation. However, this shipping container office uses insulated sandwich panels and triple-glazed windows to get around that problem. The office only requires a modest amount of heating in winter, and open windows more than enough to keep it cool in the summer.
This shipping container office is both functional and eco-friendly, and is a successful project at a time when shipping containers are increasingly being looked at as living and working space options.
