A blog about modular homes and buildings made with up-cycled shipping containers.

Brockdin Barr is a web designer in Christchurch, New Zealand. He lives with his wife and two daughters Bluebell and Willow.

Brockdin Barr doesn't live in a container, he is a homeowner of a Christchurch weatherboard bungalow.

One day he hopes to live in a container house but for now, he's happy just to spread the word.
