Your home was already built. It just carried someone else's cargo first.

Stack is a design practice that turns retired ISO shipping containers into homes with real addresses, real kitchens, and real mortgages — standing in weeks, not years.

What we believe

Three convictions that built Stack.

01

A home shouldn't take two years and a second mortgage.

The average custom build in the US takes 14–18 months and costs $350K before you see a single wall. Stack homes stand in 6–12 weeks. The math isn't complicated — the industry just doesn't want you to do it.

Steel is honest — it doesn't pretend to be something it isn't.

Corten steel ages beautifully and tells the truth about its structure. No hidden rot, no mystery moisture. A container that crossed the Pacific three times can stand for another 50 years as your living room. That's not a workaround — it's an upgrade.

Prefab doesn't mean compromise. It means precision.

Every Stack home is designed to millimetre tolerance in our workshop, then delivered to your land fully fitted — kitchen, bathroom, insulation, electrics. The only thing we pour on site is the foundation. Everything else arrives ready.
