The outhouse needs to be relatively cheap to build and maintain, and small in order to fit in with outhouse regulations. It also must be mobile so that the housing can be shipped, delivered and craned into the property. Therefore, it was seen suitable to use shipping containers as the base for the outhouse. They are easily distributed, strong, durable and available in abundance. The width of each container will fit in with road regulations to be able to be driven and delivered to properties all across the country on lorries and trains.
Qualities:
- Transportable
- Stackable
- Size Variation
- Durable
- Available in Abundance
Utilising different sized containers with varied aesthetics is an important aspect to consider. This way, each ‘Gpod’ can be personalised depending on its customer. The positive to using shipping containers is that there are so many size variations to choose from (40ft x 8ft, 30ft x 10ft, 20ft x 12ft) This can give the outhouse extra depth for more ease of use or even shorten it down to fit into the specified land space.
