WE START WITH THE THINGS WE FIND
concept & vision
c-Home Hudson is the first single-family home that we develop as part of the c-Home series, a line of prefabricated homes that upcycles shipping containers into high-quality residential. Conceived as a repeatable and adaptable model, c-Home Hudson rethinks the single-family house as a compact, efficient system, balancing spatial clarity, environmental responsibility, and contemporary living
design & architecture
we stack six 40-foot shipping containers on two levels to create a simple volume. Large glass openings carve the container structure bringing natural light, cross-ventilation, and visual continuity between interior and exterior spaces. Expansive decks extend the living areas toward both front and back yards, while an exterior stair connects the ground level to a planted green roof, reinforcing the relationship between the house and its surrounding landscape
program & use
the ground level is an open and fluid living space, with open kitchen, dining, and living areas as a single continuous volume oriented toward the outdoor decks. The upper level houses two independent bedroom areas, each accessed by its own stair and equipped with a full bathroom and walk-in closet, allowing flexibility of use and privacy. we organize the house to support multiple living scenarios, from families to shared occupancy, maintaining a degree of privacy between shared and private space
impact & significance
c-Home Hudson establishes a new approach to residential construction: modular, scalable, and rooted in adaptive reuse. By transforming industrial shipping containers into a refined domestic environment, the project expresses the synergy between prefabrication, sustainability and architectural ambition. c-Home Hudson is not a one-off house but a prototype, designed to evolve, multiply, and redefine the future of accessible, high-quality housing.
