Shipping Containers Transformed into Perfect Business Premises
Shipping containers are primarily used to transport goods across global naval routes, but these simple metal boxes have the potential to be much more than just a protective shell for sea-borne cargo. Designers with out-of-the-box ideas have found ingenious ways to repurpose the containers into a variety of objects, from relatively small spaces like showers or sheds to fully fledged business offices.

Shipping containers are primarily used to transport goods across global naval routes, but these simple metal boxes have the potential to be much more than just a protective shell for seaborne cargo. Designers with out-of-the-box ideas have found ingenious ways to repurpose the containers into a variety of objects, from relatively small spaces like showers or sheds to fully fledged business offices.


Innovative business premises; a showcase of a container-based project

Pop Brixton is a complex of food providers and other SMB’s and is located in London, operating out of premises comprised of 50 converted shipping containers. It first opened for business in 2015, and was recently covered by a high profile BBC news report. There is a wide variety of businesses that call Pop Brixton their home, including takeaways, restaurants, clothing shops, bars and start-up firms. Driven by the prohibitive cost of classic brick-and-mortar business space, small companies are joining this community in large numbers.


"I'm very happy indeed to be here," said Alessio De Laureto, owner of the takeaway Don Luigi, in an interview with the BBC. "Myself and my business partner Maria are only starting out, so we couldn't have afforded the rent of a proper [bricks and mortar] shop, and this is much better than having a pop-up or market stall exposed to the rain."
