The Canadian architect, Bernard Morin and his wife Joyce Labelle have created their personal dream home from shipping containers. Their Maison Idekit Home is both economical and ecological. Once the containers arrived, they were installed on foundations in only half a day. The rest of the work was spread over ten months. Morin is currently seeking to commercialize its concept, depending on his clients' needs.
