Containers
The Tonghe Shanzi Landscape Design company has built their incredible
five star Xiang Xiang Xiang Pray House hotel entirely out of shipping
containers! Looking like a drab shipping container village from the
outside, the hotel oozes luxurious design inside its twenty-one cozy
guest rooms, arranged on a hillside in Changski, China. Each room is
fitted with traditional Chinese décor, skylights, high-design furniture
and more! The container hotels could also be designed in one city, and
easily transported to another, making pop-up hotels possible anywhere.
The Xiang Xiang Pray House will open in August of 2012.

Clay, reed, wood and shell stone
Located near Orel's riverbank, 18 miles away from the city of
Dnepropertrovsk in the Ukraine, the Friend Hotel is steeped in a lush
and green forest. Before its construction, Ryntovt Design did an
extended ecological analysis taking into account the local resources and
energy of the area. The interior spaces are harmonious with the
beautiful outdoors, and only "ecologically harmless materials" like
clay, reed, wood, and shell stone, were used in construction.

in a queen-size bed with panoramic views of the Sierra del Tepozteco,
Mexico. The goal in designing the modular hotel was to build fast and
affordable accommodation.

Railway Carriages
This amazing hotel, named “Controversy Inn,” consists of four train
carriages recycled into a building that is comfortable, with beds that
have a theme, and a breakfast room. "Controversy" is located at Farm in
Hoogwoud, the Netherlands. This eco-hotel consists of various vintage
items that are recycled into something new again. Like a table made of
boards of traffic signs, and even a bed made from old ships.
