A housing proposal for Albania built from container units: volumes stacked and shifted, timber-clad towers rising between them and a terrace for every unit.

Containers are stacked and shifted against one another; the offsets create sheltered entrances below and terraces above. Black corrugated metal and warm timber cladding balance each other, while timber-clad towers rising between the volumes give the skyline its rhythm. Large windows open every unit to the outside.
