It’s a nice place, that cost them a butt load. He didn’t say what the cost/night is…so I know it’s high. I guess if 3 couples wanted to go and split the cost it could be do-able.
I live about 2 hrs from here. I wouldn’t have known it existed except for this video. I am ok that it’s informative and a bit of an ad. He is also a proud owner and I can tell this was no easy build. I’m actually going to see if our friends have any interest in staying here with us.
First and foremost, I love his shoes! This build is wild! What a totally brilliant mind to think so far out of the box to create this amazing "box of boxes." I love everything about it and even though it's 900+ sq ft, it still has all the qualities of a tiny home. AND...It has been given the perfect name! Thanks for this fabulous tour! 💗
I really like what people are doing with container homes. The creativity that goes into the designs is beautiful. What a great way to re purpose material. Really nice.
Not really. Corten steel has been tried before for homes. "Trailer" homes in the midwest have went through the problems already. It's not a new idea. Already been done.
This is truly an amazing space. And clearly this got all kinds of upgrades, creative touches and such. But for a home to take three years to come together and cost over $600,000 in a scrubby desert using shipping containers is a major example of the housing insanity we're in now. These alternative homes are getting as unaffordable as the typical homes.
Considering the timeline they'd have been able to put this together much faster and at a fraction of the cost by using flatpacks and SIPS or EPS as opposed to containers...
NEIL!!!! Used to see you at the car shows all the time!!! Small world! I had an R32 and a S15 back in mid 2000s to 2015ish! My kids have them now. Guess I have been out of the car scene for so long! Doing something similar to this in colorado, but with single units cut in half, and sliding door ended, we are hoping to be online by next summer, and offer affordable living to former HOMELESS Veterans, great to randomly see you again! I think the last time I saw you, we were at D1 talking about your 4dr gtr! I had a yellow s2000 widebody by mastergrade back then, has an LS7 turbo swap? Now I am spending all my money on building alternative private tiny home communities around the u.s. and elsewhere!
The truth is very beautiful, your design and choice of colors are amazing and beautiful, and also the intelligence in the way you distribute the rooms or the design in general is awesome, may God bless you in this house.
I’d love to be this owner’s friend so I could hang out here. This layout is amazing and the whole compound is beautiful!! Three simple letters- WOW!!!!
Neil you did a Great job.. Followed your dreams and came out to be amazing, I’m planing to do something similar in Puerto Rico . Moving from NY. I was a contractor 40 years my specialty interior renovation residential an commercial in Manhattan. I always wanted to build my own house , container style in a beach front property. You gave me lots of ideas. I’ll keep you posted with my project Airbnb. David
This is so amazing !! So happy for you, your family, and friends get to enjoy this beautiful home. You thought of so many good ideas, did it the way You wanted, which is the Only thing that matters. Enjoy every bit of it ! I wish you the Best !!
Really amazing result. Very high end quality and wonderful design. Since it must get hot there, I would probably add a pergola or umbrellas over the outdoor seating and dining areas. I've never understood the double head showers in a bathroom. Do people actually take showers together where that's necessary? But again, an amazing result. Very luxurious home.
JENNA, EVEN THOUGH, THE MAJORITY OF US COULD'T AFFORD TO LIVE IN THIS , OR BUILD THIS,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, I FOR 1 REALLY ENJOYED YOU SHOWING THIS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Amazing house! But one major thing you have missed out on is adding live green plants both inside and out. This will make your house so much more alive. Besides that you have created an amazing house.
I love the house. I could happily live there forever. Although I agree it needs some shade but the house is new. Landscaping takes time and big money. We did it from dirt too. So give the folks time to settle in.
He is a really nice communicator, know exactly what he is talking about and when and what to say. I wish i had that confidence. I would binge watch him if he had his own youtube channel. I love jow cool this container home looks and plus the swimming pool ?? He really knew what he was doing
A very purist approach to container homes. I love that they kept the aesthetic and embraced the narrow nature of the containers. 3 bedrooms in 960 square feet is really good! Building in CA is stupidly expensive - no getting around that, but they really did an amazing job.
the purpose of a tiny house is to get away from debt. 💰🤑 This land was cheap..but, the home was wayyyy to much money. It's cheaper to build with stick or cement blocks then having to have these containers crane lifted in place.
Great build, I think its important for some people to understand is that not everyone goes into tiny living for financial reasons, many go into it to live a more minimalistic lifestyle and get away from the hustle and bustle ❤
Thank you for sharing this build. Some great ideas, and the pool is marvelous. Also, thank you for sharing what it took to financially make this happen.
Original piece of art. Bedrooms seem small, cramped up against the walls and the containers are too narrow. Way to hot to live there. Don't think the the ac would be effective enough to cool down 115-120 heat! Global warming is here! No shade! $650k is a lot to live in a barren desert!
I love this… Mad kudos! Great ideas! My wife and I are looking at ideas for a getaway place, with a minimalist lifestyle- without going overboard. This is a great balance!
@@divingduck9 ummm… Do you feel better? Keyboard warrior doing awesomeness things and only impressing you? I could care less about his utility costs where I live and what I do - not to mention my financial situation. You enjoy you. My middle finger requires no dictionary. Enjoy that too!
Beautiful build, I would be interested in seeing the utilities for this type setup. Things like the hot water heater, the pool shed, the "inner" workings if you will.
It may seem small, but for me this is huge: kudos to him for putting a small window up high in the bathroom. 1) smart in a desert climate to limit up radiation bringing in heat but also 2) privacy. I will never understand why some people put a large floor to ceiling mirror in the bathroom.
In Australia $650k barely covers a standard home to completion, furnishing, appliances etc. He has done very well with the budget he used and for the remote location. First time I have seen a container pool with see through side panel. I wonder how that was water proofed and sealed? I suspect it’s a standard out-of-ground pool with panels attached to make it look like a container and to match the main home. Superb.
That's $650k USD which equates to $1018696.90 AUD. You can have a lot of home for that build price in Australia and not feel like you're living in a bunch of hallways.
I would have done a bunk room in that 2nd bedroom with maybe 4 pullman-style bunks with individual privacy curtains, lights, power stations - and with the option of raising the upper bunks to create a second living space with l-shaped daybed sofas across the bottom and a big tv/gaming system. Because the inherent problem with shipping container guest houses is there's a lack of common living spaces for guests to hang out in. You would create the option of a DEN.
This isn't a 'Home', this is an Airbnb, and this guy is selling it hard....
It’s a nice place, that cost them a butt load. He didn’t say what the cost/night is…so I know it’s high. I guess if 3 couples wanted to go and split the cost it could be do-able.
$201/night
And its not worth it.
I think I'd add a TON of shade on that patio & roof deck. I'm getting sunstroke just looking at it...
😂
Me too. 😮😅😮😅
This brother is insane with what he & his friends did!!
Hands down, one of the best Container designs I've ever seen!!
Screams....'AirBnB!' 🤩🤩
This is one big ad for his airB&B...
THIS is exactly my first thought! It is nice though and the look is cool!
The word is the Airbnb thing in the desert is over
I live about 2 hrs from here. I wouldn’t have known it existed except for this video. I am ok that it’s informative and a bit of an ad. He is also a proud owner and I can tell this was no easy build. I’m actually going to see if our friends have any interest in staying here with us.
Of course
After all that money he spent he might as well try to get some back 😂
Shade needed! Fabulous house.
I love the design for this, just wish he'd provided some outdoor shade!

Thank you so much. I myself am stuck in California for a few more years and I love getting ideas on the tiny home journey here😃😃😃
Love this layout and it's a truly beautiful amazing home especially the pool
My only concern is there is no shaded areas 😮
Should add those giant shade triangles in the patio area.
Ya. The could easily put in two of those three corner ‘sail’ covers and that would help.
NEIL!!!! Used to see you at the car shows all the time!!! Small world! I had an R32 and a S15 back in mid 2000s to 2015ish! My kids have them now. Guess I have been out of the car scene for so long!

I want this as my primary residence. I love it.
What a great idea for a home very spacious comfy cozy I do love that bathroom great job gorgeous home
Simply gorgeous container home, something I dream of living in.

I’d love to be this owner’s friend so I could hang out here. This layout is amazing and the whole compound is beautiful!! Three simple letters- WOW!!!!
It looks as though this is a B&B. Maybe you can find it under Box in the Rocks?
All you have to do is look his place up on air bnb This is an advertisement for his rentals
Jenna, we love your channel. Thanks for all you do. We miss the song you used before. Very unique!

I loved it ♥️ , not that I can afford it but I always liked ' different things " . He just simply has the money, good for him and her .
It is incredible! And incredibly expensive!
For California this is a money dream...affordable. Nice job!
Wow!!! This is absolutely beautiful!!! I would LOVE to stay there!!!!!!!!!!
This is so amazing !!
So happy for you, your family, and friends get to enjoy this beautiful home.
You thought of so many good ideas, did it the way You wanted, which is the Only thing that matters. Enjoy every bit of it !
I wish you the Best !!
I’m three minutes and 47 seconds into it and I already love what you’ve done can’t wait to see the rest❤🎉
Everything is your, your, your… he definitely had this built strictly to rent out. It’s super nice though, I’d definitely stay there!
Really amazing result. Very high end quality and wonderful design. Since it must get hot there, I would probably add a pergola or umbrellas over the outdoor seating and dining areas. I've never understood the double head showers in a bathroom. Do people actually take showers together where that's necessary? But again, an amazing result. Very luxurious home.
WOW-O-WOW, What a beautiful and creative place to live. I really enjoyed watching this video. Especially the pool. Thank you.
Thank you! We love the pool too!
You don't "live" there. It's just a vacation spot.
My dream home in the same area.. This is so cool to see someone else do this ..
Clearly, he loves this place and wants to share the joy. How they arranged the containers to create the courtyard and room layout is clever.
He wants to make money..
This is an Airbnb. He’s selling you or something?
That's probably the biggest and best looking bathroom I've seen in a container unit home I see why he said it was his favorite room in the house.
JENNA, EVEN THOUGH, THE MAJORITY OF US COULD'T AFFORD TO LIVE IN THIS , OR BUILD THIS,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, I FOR 1 REALLY ENJOYED YOU SHOWING THIS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WOW! The heat must be brutal in the summer.
Amazing house! But one major thing you have missed out on is adding live green plants both inside and out. This will make your house so much more alive. Besides that you have created an amazing house.
In a place that one isn’t living in, it wouldn’t be possible to take care of plants.
@@RevdUp.Art.FotograferMost Desert 🌴 palmTrees 🎄are imported from Mombasa Kenya 🎉
Hands down my favorite one that I've seen so far! Absolutely gorgeous! ♥️👊
So jealous! Good job, the design, the aesthetic and build is just awesome. Very expensive build. I hope you make your money back.
The cost alone makes it unnecessary for most.
I love the house. I could happily live there forever. Although I agree it needs some shade but the house is new. Landscaping takes time and big money. We did it from dirt too. So give the folks time to settle in.
I want four SC to enclose an outdoor space for my dogs. Like a courtyard. For privacy as well.
This is magnificent! Great job! 👍🏽💯✨
Even haters hate it, I still love it.
Nice place. Amaizing home. 👍
I would love to live in that home❤
Amazing container house project & Niel really did an amazing job explaining the actual process behind the build, love this! ❤️
Great AirBB Ad! I would definitely stay especially during winter.
I would place 4 containers in a Box form to provide a Central, enclosed courtyard
Ok, that guy is cool, and the pad is pretty cool too. Nice place...
This was very interesting, and the home is beautiful.I love this one! 😁❤️
Bro got absolutely wrecked with that cost.
He is a really nice communicator, know exactly what he is talking about and when and what to say. I wish i had that confidence. I would binge watch him if he had his own youtube channel. I love jow cool this container home looks and plus the swimming pool ?? He really knew what he was doing

so this is a reasonable cost? a lot of the ost sounded like they came from being remote? like water 30k is crazy? is it becuase of the rock?
@@lisetteem3054 No this is a horribly expensive build.
@@lisetteem3054 They got RIPPED off, hard!
Appreciate someone been honest about the expense, if I'm spending 650k I don't wanna have to have any blood and sweat
the purpose of a tiny house is to get away from debt. 💰🤑
This land was cheap..but, the home was wayyyy to much money. It's cheaper to build with stick or cement blocks then having to have these containers crane lifted in place.
It wasn't mentioned in the video so... Why would you assume that he went into debt to build it?
@@online247365 he is either in debt or spent a ton of his cash.
@@online247365 I think the point made was, most people looking into tiny living don't have $700,000 to throw into something like this.
Because he's trying to make money off of it. If he didn't need his money back then he wouldn't have to make this a long commercial for his AIR B&B.
Great build, I think its important for some people to understand is that not everyone goes into tiny living for financial reasons, many go into it to live a more minimalistic lifestyle and get away from the hustle and bustle ❤
I want something like this but have the solar panels acting like a roof in the center to shade the center.
Wow. So nice, but so expensive.
Nice city lights view from the rooftop.
Thank you for sharing this build. Some great ideas, and the pool is marvelous. Also, thank you for sharing what it took to financially make this happen.
I love him!! Awesome guy with an amazing heart and mind.
Amazing design. I really like the design and the making of things such as the pool inside a container. Really Creative.
Love the cement floors...beautiful
Jenna we absolutely love ❤😅This interview!
Looking forward to more as always! 💕🤗✊🏾🫶🏾
Very cool! I would add some shade as it is very hot as you said so yourself!

It doesn’t get that hot in Joshua Tree. Palm Springs yes but not in the high desert.
Global warming? I live in a desert in Australia, and the summers aren't any hotter, and it still snows once a year in the hills south of here
Excited to watch!
Beautiful. Well done. A big contribution to the local economy.
This house is great, and “of course” it’s amazing because they’ve “thought of everything!” 😄😉
I love this… Mad kudos! Great ideas! My wife and I are looking at ideas for a getaway place, with a minimalist lifestyle- without going overboard. This is a great balance!
if u think THAT is minimalism, u should see his utility costs & consult a dictionary

It's stunning building a home out of a shipping container,it's beautiful living in a container home,
Beautiful build, I would be interested in seeing the utilities for this type setup. Things like the hot water heater, the pool shed, the "inner" workings if you will.
I don't know how they have a pool out where the wind blows 90%of the time. I lived out there, nice view but this is a no for me. And very expensive.
Is it really that windy? We've been thinking of moving out there but if it's always windy and dusty I dunno
It may seem small, but for me this is huge: kudos to him for putting a small window up high in the bathroom. 1) smart in a desert climate to limit up radiation bringing in heat but also 2) privacy. I will never understand why some people put a large floor to ceiling mirror in the bathroom.

Creative,creative and their own. ❤❤❤
The whole way through this all I could think of was the "How do you do fellow kids!" meme 🤣
WOW!!! OMG!!! GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Probably the best container home I've ever seen and, well, the pool... is awesome cool!
Mannn this is dope! I love it!
The pool is so unique and stunning!!
🌴🌴🌴🌴🌴🌴🌴🌴🌴🌴🌴🌴🌴🌴🌴
Omg ! Your container home looks amazing ! and very spacious great job on the build. 😊
Very nice home
Gorgeous I would definitely add canopy’s on the outside this is my goal to build a cantier home ✨✨✨💫💫💫💫💫🏆
Great job, I only miss the covered area outside. Too much sun, and if it is too hot, it would be difficult to stay outside.
Fabulous home!
Dude’s rockin’ two different shoes! Sweet!
Joshua Tree has so many incredible structures ❤🙏🙌✨💯
650k... Good lord... I can't imagine the commute to get groceries. But hey... It's California... Everything is absurdly expensive.
Its not for living in, its to rent out as an airbnb
@@stanlevi2927 😕
If I remember correctly there's Joshua Tree is a nice little town with a grocery store and everything.
FANTASTIC .. absolument « MAGNIFIQUE » ❤ from Québec
This is an interesting container house. It's warm in California, so it does a lot...
Most of us cant afford a $650,000 PRIMARY residence, much less a SECOND home that's just a vacation "get-away" spot. Very depressing.
best container home design i've ever seen!
Oh my goodness, what an amazing space !!
Absolutely Gorgeous! I wouldnt mind staying there!
This house is gorgeous! I'm in love with the bathroom. The idea to do a wet room was genius.
Beautiful!
Beautiful home. Congratulations ❤
Sweet! All it's missing are solar panels. But damn, I couldn't live there, I need trees! lol, cover!
WoW! Super cool, super beautiful.
Well if i ever travelled to Joshua Tree, CA and he was renting it would love to experience it there
The clip of him chilling in the pool with the "no diving" in the shot, right after him diving into the pool. Vibes 😂
