6 Weather-Ready Prefab Homes in Florida
3 of 7
Functioning as a vacation rental for tourists, entrepreneur Rick Clegg combined old shipping containers to create a four-bedroom home with an eco twist near Palm Beach, Florida. Because of the container's inherent durability, they meet Florida's stringent construction standards. The compactness of the home; its low carbon footprint because of the use of the recycled, prefabricated containers; and the home's proximity to the Loxahatchee River make it ideal for ecotourists.
