Backyard house design by Jim Poteet

The container is 8 by 40 feet and features floor-to-ceiling glass doors and windows. Besides, there are heating and air-conditioning systems installed. The roof is filled with different plants. There are a small sink, a shower, and a toilet inside of the house. Texas architect Jim Poteet has designed this garden guest house in San Antonio. The small house is made of an empty steel shipping container and also serves as a playhouse, a garden retreat and a working studio.
