Manifesto House, an eco-house in the Chilean city of Curacavi, is a true man-made miracle and an example of advanced environmental design. It cannot be called modular in the usual sense of the word, but it is assembled from ready-made materials, quickly, on a budget and with zero negative impact on the environment. The project cost is estimated at 79,000 euros.
The eco-friendly Manifesto House is built from four shipping containers, two forty-feet and two twenty-feet. The exterior of the house is made of used wooden pallets. Dense wooden lathing is not only aesthetically pleasing, but also serves as a blind and serves to maintain the optimal temperature inside the house. Geothermal energy is also used to heat and cool the home..
Thanks to the large volume of containers, the house turns out to be very spacious, with a predominantly open layout of the rooms. The interior decoration is designed in the style of minimalism, which is most suitable for the extremely simple form of the house itself..
Most of the container walls have been cut out and replaced with full-height glass blocks, mounted on the principle of sliding doors. Large balcony on the second floor, protruding as a console above the first, forms a shaded outdoor seating area.
