This design does make an interesting use of the space in between the containers as rooms, however they look fairly empty. I don't know if you were going to add any more furniture or not but I would be interested in seeing how you would make use of all that space you have there, especially in the main dining area. It might be interesting to have an area in which you could look down into the main room from the second floor, maybe a sliding panel that acts as a wall (for privacy) and an opening/window.
I like this design because of its great use of the space between the shipping containers for the largest rooms like the dinning room and the kitchen and using the containers for the smaller rooms like the bathrooms and the bedroom. I am worried about the potential greenhouse effect of the giant glass roof over the dining room.

I like how the design has an open middle for the dinning room. I also like the use of glass. The only thing that I could see as bad would that the containers and the glass would heat up a lot. -Nicholas Stem
Our designs are almost the same in terms of original container placement. I really like your use of the glass angled roof to create a large amount of space.

Lynn- wow awesome design! So creative, I really like the skylight ceiling. Great use of space and natural lighting.
