For a long time after we cut the holes in the floors and ceilings of the containers we had (a couple of rickety extension) ladders connecting the floors!
Then we got the stairs framed in (not finished though, that just happened a couple of months ago!) The first picture below is looking at the stairwell from my kitchen.
The picture below is looking at the stairwell from our master closet. You can see the reading nook window at the top of the picture.
We framed in walls inside the first container (the one with the front doors) to create the laundry room, powder room (complete with extra shower), and our master bath. We put the smaller rooms inside the containers.
We used the larger width between the containers for the master bed, living and dining rooms.
This area is 13' 4" wide, so it just fits our California king bed plus two end tables with a bit of room to spare. (I think it would fit a regular king bed, the cal king is 4 inches narrower, but its longer to fit my 6'3" husband.)
Upstairs we framed in 2 bedrooms in the container with closets and a bathroom.
The area upstairs between the 2 stacks of containers we left completely open for a large game room space.
We also framed in an extra room that has evolved from a music room where our piano and instruments were stored to a workout room and guest bedroom. This room has a large sliding glass door that we hope one day will lead out to a second story balcony.
After we framed the walls, we poured the concrete, which I showed you guys already.
Thanks for looking! Next I'm going to start sharing the finished product room by room, instead of in chronological order. We are almost finished with the painting!! Stay tuned!! Haha.
