Inhabitat report on Starbucks brand new shipping container cafe (that is also drive through…tut tut)! Read more here.
The creative reuse of redundant shipping containers is on the rise and they are making a valuable and welcome contribution to our built environment. Recently Joe Peach covered the opening of Londons new Boxpark in Shoreditch on his blog, This Big City, which you can read here. Springwise also reported on a new shipping container mall in Christchurch, New Zealand, built on the site of a shopping mall that was destroyed in the February earthquake. Read more here!
However I can’t figure out whether to be excited or sickened with Starbucks effort? Are there trying to break the corporate mould or cash in on cool?
