Move over Oscar! Dumpsters are now replacing shipping containers as the latest architecture trend… “A California designer has turned a $2,000 dumpster into a fully functional home, complete with a bathroom, bed, kitchen and sun deck.” Or not.

Looks like he’s got a lot of the main ingredient for making living in a dumpster possible – just be drunk all the time. hee hee.

haha… I totally overlooked that! Dismissed them as condiment bottles. It appears the photographer was careful to hide the labels… way to go Jim Beam for thinking ahead!

Other than a great place to drink, I can’t see this becoming a trend like shipping containers. Though, its not a bad option for beating the rent in NYC. We’ll see if more of them start popping up…
