Quik House From Adam Kalkin

Adam Kalkin specializes in unusual homes using unusual design characteristics, and his Quik House design doesn’t disappoint. It unashamedly tells of its origins as shipping containers – rust spots and all – but the inside is just as comfortable as any traditional home. Kalkin promises that Quik Homes will take no longer than three months to assemble on-site, with the building being fully enclosed by the end of the first day. The standard 2,000 square foot, three bedroom floorplan uses about 75% recycled materials and can be placed just about anywhere that a home can be built. In short, it seems like the perfect solution for the family that wants a custom-built green home, but doesn’t want to wait for it.
