Luis de Garrido's R4 House - Via treehugger.com
Oh, be still my heart. Every once in a while I find a house that is just sooo cool and sooo me. The R4 house by Luis de Garrido is one of those projects (the four Rs stand for Reuse, Recover, Recycle and Reasoning). Let's see ... shipping container construction (or as Greg La Vardera likes to say, IBU). Check! Green roof. Check! Renewable energy sources. Check! Modest size. Check! Low impact construction. Check! Flexible and affordable approach. Check! And hip, fresh design. Check!
This house has it all!

Oh, yeah, this project is wickedwickedwicked.....
I wish somebody would really just do this here in the US, so I would not feel like I have to try - I have enough to do! Does that make any sense?
C'mon Greg, go-go-go! You can do it! I'm right behind you!
I had checked it. I'm curious what's inside. But the architect's website is not in english, so if anyone know...
I am moving to Barcelona next year. how would i purchase one of these houses?

This house is really neat! I agree that someone should be making a lot of these in the US. They're cool!
