Designer and artist Ty Kelly built this 700 square foot home in 2013 as a prefabricated home made from two recycled shipping containers. Firewood storage was kept on the exterior of the home, allowing for space to be saved on the interior; the firewood is stored in a projecting exterior box clad in wood siding that matches that of the rest of the home.
