There’s no single way to create a space that feels like home. Take a closer look at how our designs adapt to different lifestyles, locations and ambitions:

Modular container homes

Our modular container homes are designed to provide an elegant solution for full-time living, workspaces or weekend retreats. Built off-site using container-sized modules in 20ft, 30ft and 40ft formats, these homes are transported and assembled with precision across urban or regional South Australia.

You can select from multiple layout options designed to suit different lifestyle needs and property types. Each design offers a solid structure with weather-resistant exteriors and considered interiors. Optional upgrades include hardwood-like flooring, large feature windows and custom entry doors. Inside, you’ll find smart kitchens, contemporary bathrooms and a clean, open feel that connects beautifully with outdoor areas.

Expandable container homes

Crafted for compact delivery and maximum space on-site, our expandable container homes offer innovative layouts and ease of setup. Starting as a standard container footprint, these homes unfold triple their size to reveal bright, airy interiors and usable outdoor space within minutes of arrival.

Offered in 20ft, 30ft and 40ft sizes, each home arrives with pre-installed roofing, insulation and fittings. Standout elements include double-entry glass doors and finely crafted trim. Built for clients who require flexibility without sacrificing polish, the expandable range suits coastal properties, hobby spaces and adaptable backyard solutions across South Australia.
