Water

Water Tower, originally uploaded by neutralSurface.

For our energy class final we had to design something that had something from a shipping shipping container…or something. We were placed into small groups and then assigned a location (with some kind of extreme condition associate with it) somewhere in the world for our containers to live. I was assigned to New Orleans and so I got to work on a container that would deliver fresh water and living quarters. I came up with this little deal that opens up to make a water tower that supports a passive solar water heater array and create a shady sleeping porch-like space inside. Maybe not the most exciting, but it's done, and in the end isn't that what it's all about?
