The era of permanent, immovable architecture may be ending. Shipping container buildings offer the possibility of detached, mobile living spaces that can be rearranged, relocated and reconfigured at will. As a leader in container living, Lida Group focuses on designing and building detachable container structures.

Founded in 1993, Lida Group initially provided container solutions for logistics and industry. Seeing the potential of containers as affordable housing in 2010, the company shifted focus to designing and building living container structures.

Since then, Lida Group has constructed a wide range of single-container homes, duplexes,triplexes and multi-story complexes across China and over 40 countries.Their expertise lies in transforming standard containers into versatile yet stylish living spaces.

For clients requiring mobility and detachability,Lida Group offers various detachable container designs:

Modular Configuration – Containers are arranged and connected in a way that allows easy separation.All connections between modules are made with detachable fasteners instead of permanent welding.

Mobile Foundations – Lida Group builds foundations incorporating movable supports that can be disengaged to allow detached containers to be transported to new locations.

Detachable Systems – Electrical wiring, plumbing,drainage and ventilation lines are designed for simple detachment and reattachment when containers are relocated.This enables “plug and play” functionality between detached modules.

Detachable Decors – Interior decorations, fixtures and furnishings are installed in a way that allows for quick and easy removal,storage and reinstallation after detachment and relocation of containers.

Detachable Expansions – For expandable container structures,Lida Group ensures that added modules can be detached and reattached without permanently altering the initial build.

Bulk Detachability – For some projects,Lida Group constructs entire multi-container buildings in a manner that allows the entire complex to be detached,moved and reassembled in another location.

These strategies enable Lida Group’s container buildings to act as movable,detachable living spaces.The initial builds are designed from the start for easy separation,relocation,and reconfiguration of modules as clients’ needs change over time.

Lida Group sees their detachable,mobile container houses as emblematic of a future where living spaces are not permanent but adaptable.They envision a world where our habitats can flex and change with our evolving lifestyles,detaching when needed but reconnecting again in new forms.

With container-based solutions acting as test beds,Lida Group hopes to develop technologies and lessons that can transform how all buildings are designed,made and inhabited.The company imagines a future of truly detachable,adaptive architecture.
