20ft Modern Expandable Container House: High-End Living, Instant Setup
Adding extra living space shouldn’t require months of construction. The 20ft Modern Expandable Container House by DESI bridges the gap between a portable cabin and a permanent luxury dwelling.
Designed for developers and homeowners who need speed without sacrificing quality, this unit folds down to the size of a standard parking spot for cheap transport, yet expands to create a fully functional, 37-square-meter apartment in under two hours.
