Die Reduktion auf das absolut Wesentliche – der Container. In den 1950er Jahren von Malcom McLean erfunden, wurde durch diese schmucklosen Stahlboxen mit gewelltem Profil der Welthandel revolutioniert. Längst haben diese riesigen Behälter für die Lagerung und den Transport von Fracht Eingang in die Architektur gefunden und sind zu einem wesentlichen Teil der globalen Baukultur geworden. Immer erstaunlichere architektonische Nutzungen und Gestaltungsexperimente basieren auf diesen normierten, streng geometrisch konzipierten Einheiten. Ebenso vielseitig wie ihre Nutzung zeigt sich auch ihre phantasievoll gestaltete Hülle: mal mit originaler, rauher Oberfläche und Gebrauchsspuren, die eine Geschichte erzählen, mal mit einer vorgehängten Fassade aus Holz und großflächigen Verglasungen, oder als puristische Komposition mit raffinierter Lichtinstallation. In einer sich ständig wandelnden Welt mit ihren hybriden Wohn- und Arbeitsformen zeigt dieses Buch eine Sammlung bemerkenswerter Container-Bauwerke.

Design reduced to the absolute essential – the shipping container. Invented in the 1950s by Malcom McLean, these plain steel boxes with corrugated profiles revolutionized the worldwide trade sector. These huge receptacles for storing and transporting cargo have found their way into architecture to become an essential part of global building culture.
Ever more astonishing architectural applications and design experiments are based on these standardized, strictly geometrically conceived units. Their imaginatively designed shells are just as versatile as their use: sometimes with original, rough surfaces with traces of use that tell a story, sometimes with a curtain facade made of wood and largescale glazing, or even as a purist composition with a sophisticated light installation. In an everchanging world with its hybrid forms of living and working, this book presents a collection of remarkable container buildings.
