Gorman Ship Shop

Lisa Gorman asked if we could convert a shipping container into a shop. Being in love with these simple steel modular boxes (like most architects) we said “sure … why not.” The resulting ship shop took the combined efforts of two architects, a carpenter and his apprentices, a steel fabricator, two transport companies, a sustainability consultant, the entire Gorman office and many others.
