was designed by Santiago Irarrazaval Architects and Erick Caro in 2012. In an effort to reduce the cost as well as the construction time, they chose to build the Caterpillar house out of shipping containers. In total, 12 containers were used, one of which has an open top and serves as a swimming pool. Of course, that’s not the only thing that makes this house special. In fact, the most interesting of all is the distribution of the internal spaces and the way in which the zones interact with each other while maintaining their individuality.
