Welcome
ShelterKraft Werks designs and builds shipping container houses: innovative structures using repurposed steel cargo containers. We’re creating turn-key, comfortable, sustainable living spaces that are uniquely durable, cost-effective and suitable for virtually any environment.
The ShelterKraft CargoCottage™ and CargoHaus™ designs are perfect for all kinds of uses:
- Vacation Cabin
- Backyard office or studio space
- Mother-in-law dwelling
- Family home
- Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) as a Backyard Cottage guest house or rental
- Off-the-grid living
- Tiny House
- Mobile cabin
Whether you dream of small-footprint living or envision a large multi-unit structure, ShelterKraft’s container architecture design and build services can help realize your dream. We do both residential and commercial buildings, and integrate many eco-friendly and green building elements into our projects.
WHAT WOULD YOU DO if you had your very own container space? Art studio in the woods? Weekend fishing getaway? Use it as a writing retreat to start the next Great American Novel? Play the electric guitar as loud as you want? Make it your Love Shack for romantic getaways? Recreate Thoreau’s experience on Walden Pond? Let your imagination roam free!
