Working from Home with a Stylish Twist

Shipping container offices are home working’s best kept secrets. For years you would only see them in gardens of pricey London homes or sprawling country townhouses.

But with a heavier focus on home working in the modern world, the need for the perfect space has never been more clear.

HIG’s shipping container offices provide you with perfect, sustainable, and cost-effective working spaces. Leave dingy, cramped home offices as a thing of the past. Get back amongst nature and give yourself a space to find the most productive you.

Planning Permission

Need a home office but aren’t sure if you’ll be able to get planning permission for an extension?

HIG’s shipping container offices are classified as a temporary, or semi-permanent structure, and in most cases are exempt from planning permissions. This leaves you free to get on with your day, without being chased by the local council.

You can build a home office to work away from a busy house. It can be installed on an industrial or building site, and even be used as a temporary solution if you are between offices or yours is under construction.

Security Doesn’t Come at a Cost

Working from home can allow greater freedom for workers, a chance to see more of your family, and in many cases it actually boosts productivity. It does come with issues though, one of which being security. Should somebody ever break in, your company’s documents and details could be easily accessible and taken.

Shipping containers are designed from the ground up to be practically impossible to get into. They are built from durable materials, meaning a person wouldn’t be able to get into yours without making an awful lot of noise, allowing you to call the authorities.

An Off Grid shipping container office gives you peace of mind that your equipment, files and paperwork are safe from falling into the wrong hands.

Put Yourself into Your Space

So you’ve decided a shipping container office is right for you. Well now comes the most exciting part; incorporating your style and personality into your working space. Just because it’s somewhere for work doesn’t mean you have to recreate a typical office. The better your environment the better your mood, and the better your mood the better you can work.

With guidance from the HIG Housing team you can create the perfect space to both boost your mood and your workflow. Yin and Yang in practice.
