'phase z. ro’ temporary shipping container office in singapore

designboom was recently in singapore where we had the opportunity to document the progress of wilkinson eyre's masterplan for 'gardens by the bay'.

designed by moshe safdie, the platform rests 200 feet in the air and is equivalent in size to the eiffel tower laid horizontally on its side or three football fields connected end to end.

singapore's marina bay sands designed by architect moshe safdie opened its doors to the public on april 27th, 2010, at the feng shui approved time of 15:18 pm.

eight poppy red shipping containers have been stacked and combined to generate 208 square meters of usable living space, overlooking the french countryside through a transparent enclosure.

designed to be easily disassembled and reassembled, the temporary art gallery is constructed using ten shipping containers. 

a shipping container is transformed into a modern canteen, feeding new yorkers gourmet food with a side of intelligent design, working off the grid and utilizing hybrid energy systems and a grey water supply.
