From Steel Box to Cozy Bedroom | DIY Shipping Container Transformation (Tiny House Build)
It all started with an empty steel box — no windows, no insulation, nothing cozy about it. But over the past year, we turned that cold, industrial shell into the coziest plywood-lined bedroom for our little family of three.
In this video, I’m taking you inside our first ever shipping container build: a Nordic-inspired tiny bedroom designed to hold a king-size bed, floor-level storage drawers, and just enough space to live simply (and beautifully) in the wild.
We talk: → The pros and cons of living in a shipping container home
→ Our DIY insulation journey with hemp wool and spray foam
→ Why we chose plywood + red oak trim for a Scandinavian look
→ What worked (and what didn’t) about the first version of this build
→ Layout lessons from living close together as a family
→ Using tools like Rhino for small space design
→ And how design might just impact your wellbeing more than you think…
If you’ve ever dreamed about building a tiny house, designing a minimalist bedroom, or living a little more off-grid, I think you’ll love this transformation.
💡 Design is personal. This is what worked for us.
📦 No foundation needed
💤 King-size lofted bed
🧤 Insulated for snowy winters
🪵 Nordic plywood aesthetic
🌲 Built in the mountains, from scratch
