Twenty-four shipping containers are retrofitted and transformed into PUMA CITY, a transportable retail and event building that is traveling around the world along with the 70-foot long Puma sailing boat – during the one-year long 2008 Volvo Ocean Race, just started in Alicante, Spain in early October.

This is a beautiful home in Costa Rica with a sure flair that makes a tacit reference to the Eames case study house. There is a vast amount of glass and steel, but it still manages to keep it warm with the introduction of indoor/outdoor reflection pools. Natural cross ventilation, high luminosity and more exciting yet, the use of a rain water collection system that feeds the swimming pools and the reflection ones inside the house.
With a house that looks like a modern museum, the interior can’t disappoint. The use of the space, the connection with the exterior landscape, and the wonderful library are just few examples of integrating the look of the outdoors with the inside.
Still, I can’t see myself living in such a place. There’s something too about the vast expansions of free space to call it personal.
