This is incredible – a decent-sized house built with two large containers on pilings in Costa Rica for $40,000. And it’s nice… really nice. Check out the interiors below.

In order to come up with the very specific design ideas, we create most designs with the assistance of state-of-the-art AI interior design software.

I love the red exterior and all the windows. The team built the house on site as you’ll see below – they trucked in containers and then completed the house.
