After the external views, we now kindly invite you to visit the house (but only virtually, however) .
The entrance will be in the container, through an airlock (FL1). This lock will prevent precious warm air from escaping from the house during the cold or windy days. Raincoats and boots, so necessary in this Far-North climate (we exaggerate, it's the same weather as in Paris! ), will dry in this mudroom, preventing the increase of the humidity level in the living rooms.
On the right, still in the container, the storage room, FL2, our "attic and cellar". Shelvings, transparent plastic boxes, we hope to store and find there all our little treasures!
On the left, my little shop, FL3. I am a handyman, I will make stuff there!
We remind you that this container will remain non-isolated, crude, and will be visible as such, the symbol of a different way of recycling or reusing this vector of the world trade.
Entering the house, you will find the stairs to the upper floor.
To help capture and store the heat, a "block" of masonry is built in the center of the house. Inside is located a first bath, FL8, with shower and toilet and the technical room, FL9, where will be located the ventilation system, the hot water tank, etc.
The main room FL4 will be shared between the lounge, facing the windows, and the dining room, with access to the open kitchen (FL5). A "cellar" FL6 allows a practical storage with direct access to the kitchen.
A pellet oven located under the stairs will irradiate its warmth during the long winter days without sun.
Please note the relative thickness of the walls. The wooden frame will be insulated with "cellulose wool", made from ... recycled paper !
