    If our governments could adopt this type of accommodation for the poor, we will have less slums, this container is beautiful 👏👍🏼

      They use containers as temporary accommodation while they wait for RDPs. But they don't insulate them, so they have a bad reputation. I wish they'd do more work on them since it would be much more cost effective than starting from scratch.

      The government will not do this as it will uplift the poor too much. Don’t be surprised they create special tax cause they will call this type of home luxury home 🏡

Why not do something like that. If individuals can achieve this big gangs of volunteers would help. Better still recruit people and give them a job. WELL DONE YOU.

    She is absolutely gorgeous but her spirit is even more beautiful. Great job on this build. Container homes are affordable to purchase, practical, safe, environmentally friendly and can be a great cost saving option for DIYers. There's no good reason why politicians and national leaders with all their money, power, resources and influence can't allow them to be easily constructed in countries like Haiti where it seems like there's an earthquake every 10 years. Instead, they'd rather see their citizens continuously face homelessness and abject poverty. It's incredibly sad and pathetic.

I look at this project as a beginning stage for an opportunity to start a tiny house rental program and also for rent to own for homeless and better living conditions. The ppl may have an option to sell at the market price to an interested buyer, if they have outgrown the Tiny house. Food for thought.🤔

    Subscribed majorly because it’s Kenyan, after following so many build channels for the same getting something close to home and having tailored solutions etc is better. Great stuff and lovely home

    Grace when you said you took over the making of your closet/clothes shelving from the Carpenter and finished it yourself, my heart thrilled and I said "kudos to you lady". Because that's what I would have done myself, as a lady myself I just love working with hammer and saw and nails, oh the whole lot. You go lady, I applaud you wholeheartedly, want to build my own Tiny Home one day.

    Hello Family! Thank you so much for the support. I have shared a video on the costings. The video explains a bit about the process of building a container house. Thank you for the patience. Keep watching.

    I think this is a fantastic home! Love the idea of using magnets to hang the painting it is brilliant. I love the fact that she took charge of doing the closet the way she wanted to. I bet the carpenter didn't think she could do it. Men forget that women can do anything they set their mind to. The stairs are great I love that they don't take up the interior living space of the home. Love the balcony outside the bedroom what a lovely place to great the day. I would love to live in a container home like that one.

    I really enjoyed the video Grace I'm moving to Kenya soon and I already have a business there and I never thought about a tiny house or container houses! Could you tell me basically how much do they cost to build and what realtor did you see for the tiny container houses? Other than that I have to tell you you have beautiful skin Queen👑🔥

  • @brilliantdiva5068
    @brilliantdiva5068 3 роки тому +6

    Excellent vision. This is the first container presentation I have seen where the owner cleverly realized she could use magnets to hang and saved spaces with metal rather than plastering walls.

      Aki I hate that I usually fear you can slip and hit your head on the toilet bowl. Or you literally have to walk on water to go to the washroom especially when you have different people using the washroom and it gets disgusting.
      Just thinking about it makes me cringe 😬😬😬😬
