Update: this project is included in Dezeen Book of Ideas, which is on sale now for £12. Called Safe House, the residence shuts down to a safe central core with a drawbridge, a shutter that drops down to cover an entire facade and massive wall panels that block out all the windows. The thick courtyard walls slide back into the house. The drawbridge leads to the roof of an adjacent building that houses a swimming pool. Brione House / Wespi de Meuron.

The distinctive Quik House comes in a prefabricated kit, based on recycled shipping containers (in fact a completed house is about 75% recycled materials by weight). The standard Quik House offers 2,000 square feet, three bedrooms and two and one-half baths, though larger options are also available. The shell assembles within just one day, and all the interior details can be finished within about three months.

Adam Kalkin isn't the only architect to make homes out of shipping containers.

In architectural circles, Kalkin is regarded as something of an oddball.
