This was my favorite field trip by far. We went to go visit Debbie Glassberg's own home, where she informed us about her company called Home Contained. She uses containers shipped from China to build durable homes. She has used her own house as a prototype for her company, and to get a better understanding about how a house made of containers could work and function. Her house also saves energy with her LED lighting, electronic gas, and geothermal heating and cooling. her house is recyclable and reusable, meaning that you can take it apart exactly the way it came and move the house to a different location or use the materials for other buildings or houses. I loved touring her home. I thought it was a very bright, airy and fun exciting atmosphere to be in. I am interested to keep up to date with her company and see what it turns into in the long run with her new container designs.
