Nest Architects – Gorman Shipshop


gorman_01.jpg

Nest Architects are a Melbourne based architecture and design practice and the minds behind this bright and resourceful shipping container conversion.

So, what is it?
“The Gorman Ship-Shop is exactly what it’s called. A shop that can be shipped, moved or planted anywhere there’s space…”

_jlm5157.jpg

Designed for client Lisa Gorman of Gorman Industries this amazingly portable design uses basic design principles of functionality to create a unique space. By adopting the simple structure of the container and staying true to its original purpose (shipping..) the appropriately named shipshop acts as a constantly
moving exhibit –

“Sometimes the simple little projects are the most involved … and the most rewarding.”

“Lisa Gorman asked me if we could convert a shipping container into a shop. Being in love with these simple steel modular boxes (like most architects) we said “sure … why not.” The resulting shipping shop took the combined efforts of two architects, a carpenter and his apprentices, a steel fabricator, two transport companies, a sustainability consultant, the entire Gorman office and many others.”

You can also purchase your international travel cover policy on the web by using your current credit card. All you should do would be to enter the travel details and you can view the plans side-by-side. Simply find the system that suits your finances and needs and after that use your credit card to buy the item. Travel insurance on the internet is a good way to do investigation for a respectable company to get international travel insurance. Thanks for giving your ideas.

    I have always disliked the idea because of the expenses.
    But he’s tryiong none the less. I’ve been using WordPress on a number of websites
    for about a year and am nervous about switching to another platform.
    I have heard great things about blogengine.net. Is there a way I can transfer all my wordpress posts into it?

    Any kind of help would be really appreciated!
