Living in a container - Alberto Cattani

In 2010 the architect Alberto Cattani created the very first French university student residence out of shipping containers, at Le Havre. These 100 detachable “studios”, which can be dismantled, are inserted into a steel structure. They are designed as short-term accommodation, which could eventually be moved to a different city. It’s a very “mobile” approach to property!
