Container home for a family of four: layouts that work
A family of four needs two bedrooms, a bathroom, a living area and storage. A container home can meet that need, but the layout must give children and parents room to live apart in the evening.
Space needs
- Two bedrooms, or one bedroom and a study that can become a room later.
- At least one bathroom, ideally two if the house has two floors.
- A living area that fits everyone, with a table for meals.

Open in 3D →A common solution
Two 40ft boxes stacked, or a 40ft and a 20ft side by side, give enough space. The stairs or the joint become the main circulation.
Outdoor space
Children need a safe garden. Place the house so the garden faces the sun and is visible from the kitchen.
Plan for growth
Leave the option for a loft or an extra box later. Think about how the house will work when the children are older.
