Container City

Posted by andrew on Monday, September 18th, 2006

This past weekend was “Open House” in London, with lots of interesting venues opening their doors to the public. On Sunday I went along to Trinity Buoy Wharf to see some of the installations and check out some of the possible event spaces. Alas, I was a day too late for Eco-Design Day, but it was still a fascinating place – especially Container City, a development of studio spaces and offices constructed from old container units. Fantastic views of Canary Wharf and the Dome, a groovy looking New York style diner on site and a bird sanctuary next door… could this be a future home for the Seventeen empire? Watch this space!

  1. Container buildings are a fascinating part of modern architecture. 
    Maybe even of future Architecture.
    in particular in times of “green movement”
