CUSTOM PROJECTS
Utilizing the modular concept we can develop custom projects adapted to each client, according to their needs, wishes and land availability. These projects can take many shapes and sies according to the demand of the client and spacial possibilities. Typical configurations can range from a few mocules arranges together to many conteiners stacked together in a multi-stories system. Aditional engeneering may be required for more complex configurations. Using conteiner modules speeds up construction and cuts costs, achieving agile and cost efective building with endless possibilities.

03. MARKET ANALYSIS
The japanese market is well advanced in the filed of modular construction, and these companies already offer prefabricated houses on the market.
TRADITIONAL PREFABRICATED HOUSES This a very competitive market, with some big companies offering their products from small to large houses. Some companies highlighted are: Asahi-Kasei, Misawa, Toyota Home and Sekusui Home. Their method of construction follows the traditional japanes method of timber construction, with modules pre assembled in a factory and final assembly on site. Most of the brands have large showrooms where they build all their models. Potential buyers simply search for the showrroom closest to them and schedule a visit with the company They also advertise healvily on magazines and TV, giving away their catalogues on streets and newstands across the country. Prices range from $200.000,00 for a 90m² house and can go up to $800.000,00 for a three bedroom house. Because of their price, buyers of theses types of houses are mainly young families looking for their first home or elders leaving the city for a quieter life on small towns outside the capitals. Although all brands make an effort to diferentiate their products, it is hard not to look at them and fell they are all very similar.
ADVANTAGES • • • • •
Support of a large company They are in the market for a long time Reconigzed brands Consolidated infra structure of fabrication and marketing High speed of on site construction (the structure can be build on one day)
DISADVANTAGES • • • • • •
Same cost as a normal house (on site construction) No mobility Not expandable Traditional design High price for a single person Targeted at young families and elderly people

03. MARKET ANALYSIS
SHIPPING CONTAINER HOMES There are no companies in Japan offering prefabricated houses made out of shipping containers. There are, however, initiatives that use shipping containers as temporaty constructions that can be deployed for disaster relief, such as earthquakes or tsunamis. These are mostly experimental or used in very specific circunstances.
EX-CONTAINER EX-CONTAINER is an initiative created by architect Yasutaka Yoshimura and the idea is to build temporary shelters that can be stocked and deplu=oyed whenever the need arrives. They have a simple construction using the shipping container module, being easily transported to where they are needed. However, these projects are yet to be used in disaster areas. Price for a stardard model based on two conteiners is around $32000,00 and go up to $41000,00 for a triple module.
SHIGERU BAN Famous japanese architect Shigeru Ban has designed several tyoes of constructions using shipping container for disarter relief, ranging from single unit houes to apartments comprising several units stacked. They were used during the tsunami in Japan and are currently being used in several countries where natural disasters occur. The Characteristics of multistory temporary housing: » shorten the construction period by usage of existing containers » possible to build up tp 3 stories and to be build in narrow sites or slope lands » placing containers in a checkerboard pattern and create a open living space in between » excellent seismic performance » can be used as a permanent apartment

SHIPPING CONTAINER ARCHITECTURE IN JAPAN
There are many examples in Japan of constructions using shipping containers. They range from comercial spaces to schools and their design differs from other traditional constructions due to their special aesthetics based on the exposed materials of the containers. These constructions are not meant to be mobile, their goal was to reduce costs and speed up desig and construction.
