Considering today’s increasing population and resulting rise in construction, there is a heavy demand for construction materials. In the aftermath of rampant exploitation of resources available naturally and synthetically, the need for incorporation of sustainability in every possible area of construction has been recognized. Keeping in line with the ideology, an alternative to traditional concrete houses must be found. With an increase in the population of cities, the area occupied by the slums has risen in the fringes. This project aims to find a sustainable solution to rehabilitate slum dwellers in a much more organized and habitable environment. This can be done through houses made from a shipping container. These containers are made of steel and can be customized to meet the structural needs with minimal efforts. With the help of market survey, market quotations and technical survey, the feasibility analysis of Container Homes shall be carried out. As per current findings, shipping container houses satisfy not only the structural needs but also the financial aspect of the project. Shipping container homes cost less than conventional homes.
