Shipping container homes get national press.

I have been posting on shipping container homes for some time now and in my comments and feedback I get many who think this is just another flash in the pan.  That they will never make mainstream homes.  Well, in my searches today I came upon this recent article in USA Today through a post over at Materialicious

  It does my heart a lot of good to see these homes getting this kind of press. I personally feel it a strong and viable form of architecture that we will see a lot more of.  That, and it also is using a very abundant and CHEAP resource that is available to us all throughout the country.  You can’t beat that! 

I can guarantee you that my next home will be made from shipping containers.

    I like this ideea, I mean it looks pretty interesting and very simple but i wonder if you want a bigger home and if it can be done with one or two stores does this kind of house will be able to resist to a earthquake or it will colapse.
