It took seven shipping containers and about three years to complete\u00a0the Container Bar<\/strong> in Austin, Texas. Designed by North Arrow Studio<\/strong> with the help of\u00a0Hendley | Knowles Design Studio<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/strong>, this hip style bar, spread over an area of 8000 sq feet, is construed by stacking the containers on top of one another to create a open, double-height bar area covered with corrugated metal panels. Unlike simple container projects where the container opening is mostly used as an entrance, the Container Bar features full height\u00a0windows and walls that have been carved out from the body of the containers. In order to replace the steel removed and provide additional support, a steel post of lintel\u00a0is inserted.<\/p>\n

The interiors of the bar is finished with a combination of various materials and vibrant\u00a0colours. The space\u00a0features four different private rooms\u00a0with comfy chairs and couches,\u00a0each with a distinct style and personality. The bar opens up to an outdoor sitting area allowing the\u00a0customers to enjoy the sun during the daytime and lounge around indoors during the chilly evenings. Compared to other shipping container projects<\/a> we have covered in the past, what really makes this project stand out is the thoughtful incorporation of a ramp to provide access to wheelchairs and the fact that the unique design could be easily transported to a different\u00a0location.
