Aristide Antonas: keg apartments

While transforming shipping containers into livable structures is now common, aristide antonas imagines doing the same with liquid containers.  Antonas and collaborator Katerina Koutsogianni  use existing transportation and re-imagine this would-be trash as a system of 'abandoned spaces'.  The keg apartments are proposed as an architectural program in two versions. the trailers can be detached from the car and used as a stable residence or left attached and used more like mobile home. windows would be carved out of the metal structures and used as points of entry.  A large circular window cold be made at the front end  facing the car. this way, the inhabitants could move freely between the two units as if they were one.  Ahe interiors are left very raw using the existing structure to anchor lofts and amenities like a bathtub.  While the keg containers don't have the most spacious interiors,  they could be put to use as vacation  homes,  much like recreation vehicles today.
