On the banks of Hamilton Lake in Hot Springs Arkansas stands a residence that redefines container living. Designed with four shipping containers this two-storey home demonstrates how modular architecture can deliver elegance and lifestyle in perfect balance.
A Cohesive Layout
-
Ground Level: Two containers anchor the design with infill spaces that expand the plan. A light-filled living area connects seamlessly to the dining and kitchen before opening to a generous deck overlooking the water.
-
Upper Level: Two more containers create the second storey where bedrooms face the lake through floor-to-ceiling glass. An elevated deck extends the living space outdoors with uninterrupted views.
-
Bedrooms and Bathrooms: Three spacious bedrooms and four bathrooms ensure privacy comfort and flexibility for families and guests.

A Home Designed for Living
The true strength of this project lies not only in its materials but in the lifestyle it creates. Interiors flow with ease. Outdoor areas become natural extensions of the home. Private retreats coexist with communal spaces. Every element is measured yet welcoming.
Could This Be Your Next Home
This residence shows what four containers can achieve on a lakeside in Arkansas. Now consider what is possible here. A hillside retreat in Nuwara Eliya a villa by the water in Kandy a coastal escape in Kalpitiya or a modern family home in Colombo.
At Hybrid Cargotecture Development (HCD) we bring these architectural principles to Sri Lanka. Open planning thoughtful integration of indoor and outdoor living strong modular forms and refined finishes adapted to local conditions.
