For most of us, our (1) (RESIDE) is a permanent structure. Whether a flat or a mansion,
our (2) (ROUND) are not built to move. For those who prefer a mobile lifestyle, but want
more (3) (SOLID) than a tent can offer, there is an intriguing (4)
(ARCHITECT) solution: the shipping container.
Shipping containers are large metal boxes that (5) (MANUFACTURE) use
for transporting goods by ship. One of these containers can form the basis of a surprisingly
(6) (SPACE) dwelling, and one which can be easily shipped to different parts of the
world. It's easy to design the inside: wooden panels can be used to create separate areas and to make
(7) (SHELF). More difficult is creating the (8) (STRUCTURE) that all
homes need to make them (9) (INHABIT): connections to electricity and water. As long
as your container isn't too far away from a (10) (RESIDE) area, and as long as you are
prepared to adapt to local conditions, it may well be possible to connect to local supplies. When you decide
to move, simply pack up and arrange for your house to be delivered to your destination!
