  1. Beautifull. I really would like to see isbu houses in extreme weather conditions, or even earthquake. I have the feeling the may work very well for people standing inside the box.

    Congratulations on this project.

  2. Excellent, I have lived in California an rode a few earthquakes, but now I live in Florida. I wanted to move Panama City Beach but opted out and moved 45 miles inland due to concerns of the Hurricanes. I wish I had of known about the steel containers I would have reconsidered moving inland and from what I saw on the video I would have made a good investment the green way. Please send more information because in my county there is a lack of green earth thinkers and I would love to help with this cause and help people move out of low lying water beaten areas. This county could use stable apartments for young people moving away from home for the first time or second homes for snowbirds that want to have a place in the woods…
