쉐도잉 연습: 3 x 20ft Shipping Containers Turn Into Amazing Compact Home - 영상으로 영어 말하기 배우기

When you look at a shipping container the last thing that you think of is a house

But it never ceases to amaze me how people can take these cold metal boxes

and turn them into wonderful welcoming homes

Today we're in Victoria where one young couple has taken three of these 20-foot shipping containers

and turned them into a remarkably designed home

Hello Amy!

Hi Bryce, nice to meet you!

Lovely to meet you.

G'day Rich, how's it going?

Good.

This house, it's super super cool.

This is actually three 20-foot shipping containers all attached together isn't it?

Yep, that's correct.

Yeah.

How did this all actually come about?

We didn't need a big home

and I guess the shipping containers are already available to us

so we had use of them so we kind of built to our needs.

And also we wanted to keep a low debt level

so we can continue the lifestyle that we like

which is lots of holidays and going overseas with Rich being English

and having family over there so it's another reason why we thought that a smaller dwelling would fit our lifestyle.

We came to be living in this home about two years

ago after travelling to Europe for your cousin's wedding really re-evaluated what was needed in a home

and also what the essential tick boxes in life were.

So when we decided to go down the home building journey we decided to go down the untraditional route.

The design that you've come up with here is really cool.

Can you tell me about how you actually laid them all out like this?

We wanted something that created a little bit of separation between the kitchen dining

and the study the living and then our sleeping quarters

so we decided to stagger them to get the best passive

solar design as well as a little bit of interest with the links

and the staggering of the containers so it looks aesthetically pleasing

when you drive up as well with the three containers

and then the adjoining factors together do you know what the total size of this home is yeah

so it's around 49.2 square meters and what about the property we're on right now how did you come across this?

It's my parents property so we are on five acres of it

and they're on the other five acres so it's been subdivided.

This is a shipping container home and yet looking at it you really wouldn't think

so because you've clad everything can you tell me a little bit about how you've done all of that?

We've used a Colorbond product called Designer Panel it's an interlock cladding it's fantastic

because it's low maintenance and it's very easy to install.

So with cladding it You've also gained that sort of space in between

which you can add insulation or you've got

that air barrier in between the steel of the shipping container and the outside cladding.

And that's also the same thing with the inside where you've got the inside clad too.

You can also gain that sort of extra 70 mil of space to insulate.

So it's like sort of like a sandwich.

We really tried to push the boundaries with this project with our insulation to gain a higher star rating

because in Australia you require at least a minimum of six star.

This home's 7.1.

So we've got the double-claved timber windows and then the bulk insulation in the ceiling and also under the floor.

Looking at the roof, this is a really clever design as well because obviously by having the additional roof, you're creating a little bit of shade and helping to cool down the space.

But you've also filled it with solar.

Is this house totally off the grid?

Not completely off-grid due to financial reasons.

We couldn't afford batteries when we were first installing, but that is one of our aims for the future.

We do have a feeding tariff so it does offset our usage which is fantastic.

Yeah and the adventure of having this huge roof structure across all the containers we're collecting our own water too.

So there's a couple large tanks out the back collecting water throughout the year.

Excellent, what sizes are your tanks?

We're collecting around 30,000 litres.

We initially started off with 20,000 and due to a very dry summer

and autumn we decided to put another one in just to safeguard ourselves.

So how many watts of solar did you manage to get on the roof here?

We went for a 3.75 kilowatt system as there's only two people living in the house at this present time.

Well this is such a unique looking home I cannot wait to see how it all works on the inside.

Come on in.

Yes please, thank you.

This is stunning.

We absolutely love our home.

We really enjoy using this space.

One of the big things was it being healthy for the human, the end user as well.

So it's all zero formaldehyde joinery that's in place.

So it's healthy for us to breathe.

And the finish that we've put on the firewood as well is low VOC so it's healthy for us to use.

The style in here is very modern as well isn't it?

Absolutely it's something that we went for we just liked to be a bit timeless

so you know in 20 years time we hope we're still living here

and we you know don't want to be changing things on trend

or anything like that we'd rather have a really nice clean lime kitchen so we can avoid that.

And tell me about the design of your kitchen.

A big thing with our kitchen is we wanted a dishwasher just

so if we were ever time poor you could utilize that.

So we decided to go with a half drawer dishwasher which is nice and compact.

We also wanted enough storage for pots and pans.

We don't use many appliances but there's enough storage for those bits that we do use.

I obviously really enjoy my little bits and pieces of ceramics

and cookbooks so we made sure that they were always on show in the kitchen design as well.

And you've got a really good amount of prep area here as well.

Yeah so you maybe think with having containers you're almost restricted with your joinery

so it has to go in certain places

but we've been quite lucky with how it's positioned

so we really haven't lost too much prep space or storage space being a smaller container.

And one One of the things

which is definitely a bit of a luxury for a smaller home is to have a dining table.

Yeah, room for six.

Absolutely.

We love having friends come over.

100

So one of the requirements was at least four.

101

And we were lucky enough to thrift our lovely kitchen table locally.

102

And there's more than enough room in here to entertain six people over for lunch or dinner.

103

Brilliant.

104

And then over here we come to one of the first of the little joins in the containers.

105

Yep, so this is the first link which houses just the laundry and just a small pantry.

106

So we didn't really want to have to make space in a small house for these sort of appliances like a washer.

107

So we've really gained that sort of space in these links.

108

And also having the doors on you can have the washing machine and it minimizes the sound.

109

So it's fantastic.

110

You can have it going and being on your laptop

111

and it's not overly distracting so it's great because you can shut it away and forget what's happening behind there.

112

And then what do we have over here in the next container?

113

This is our lounge and study area, definitely my favourite part of the house.

114

And I can see why this is so cosy.

115

Absolutely, it's so great.

116

We have the north and the easterly aspects

117

so we gain some beautiful morning light in summer

118

and then during winter it really floods in so sitting on

119

that couch with the morning cup of tea is divine

120

but one of my favorite things is cozying up in winter

121

in front of the wood burner a wood burner like this

122

so quickly just becomes the central feature of every home doesn't it yeah

123

so we were lucky to get this out of another project

124

so it was a minimal cost for us

125

and it really heats the house really well in australia you can have pretty harsh temperature variations can't you

126

and i've noticed that in this home you're just utilizing fans i don't see any air conditioning no

127

that was another thing with the star rating we made sure

128

we had enough insulation to make sure it was thermally comfortable during winter

129

so we only needed the wood burner

130

and also during summer where we only require the cross flow ventilation

131

so the natural wind cooling the home and also the use of the electric fans on the ceiling.

132

We have only turned them on four times last summer.

133

We are very conscious about closing down the house

134

when warm periods come through so it can be really nice

135

and cool in here if we've shut down the house and there is none of that solar gain during those warmer periods.

136

Now tell me about the seating area here as well

137

because it looks like you've built quite a bit of storage in this.

138

Yes a lot of the sort of furniture we've put into

139

the house there's no sort of like furniture we bought in as such apart from like the stools

140

so everything is built in storage so it's a full depth drawer for each one so it's functional furniture.

141

We've also got all of our bed linen and towels

142

and everything in the other drawers but one of my favorite drawers is our tiny house wine cellar.

143

I bet you're looking forward to when you're able to use that drawer again.

144

Oh absolutely, six weeks and counting.

145

Nice and then over here we have your workspace.

146

Yep so really generous space, really functional so we kind of work a little bit from home

147

or like our own projects in the evening and this is the perfect space for really.

148

I like how you've set it up that you both have your individual working space here too.

149

Absolutely, you can obviously see from the decorating above who's who's

150

and we do really enjoy having our sides of the study area.

151

And then behind me here this is another one of the links.

152

Absolutely so this is where we have some great hanging solutions as well as more hanging,

153

some more bookshelves and vacuums so it's fantastic that we're able to utilize every single aspect of our home.

154

And then what do we have our last container we have

155

our bedroom as well as our bathroom this is cool it's

156

really interesting how high you've raised the bed a big thing as we've mentioned was the storage

157

and making everything as functional as possible

158

so we decided to pick the bed up off the ground

159

so we could have that storage and this is a queen-size bed that's correct

160

so within those dimensions

161

that really does just give you a tremendous amount of volume underneath it to turn into storage

162

and these drawers are full depth for the whole uh depth of the uh the queen mattress

163

so very generous amount of storage that's really cool and

164

that is a very neat drawer someone's taught you to fold thank you very much just amy

165

so with the bed being this high as well that's got

166

to be a bit of a mission to climb up on how do you do

167

that we just do it with a lovely handy step ladder here

168

if there's anything to change about the design of the home

169

I think at this specific moment it would be for to have the bed one drawer lower.

170

Yes being 34 weeks pregnant it's getting a little challenging getting up and down on that bed.

171

But in the way of long-term things?

172

No nothing at all.

173

And now onto the bathroom.

174

Oh wow the tile work in here is gorgeous.

175

Oh we've got a very very talented tiler.

176

Being a smaller home we wanted to create the illusion of there being a bigger space

177

so we went for full height tiles and also

178

that wet room effect so we didn't want any closed in areas

179

and by having the nib walls it creates a little bit of storage

180

and interest and depth to place plants and products

181

and everything on there so we really did think out the bathroom

182

and how it would best be utilized

183

and it actually came out being a lot bigger than we anticipated so it is a very generous bathroom.

184

And you've got a flushing toilet here?

185

Absolutely, so this is just into our septic system with the use of rain water

186

and by having it all the way back to the wall

187

with the system being built into the wall not only creates this really handy nib wall

188

but it also makes for a more spacious area.

189

So how long have you actually been living in the home now?

190

14 months since we've we've moved in.

191

And how are you finding actually living in the space?

192

We absolutely love it and as you can probably see we have another one on the way

193

and we are going to utilise these spaces until baby number two comes along

194

so we will do some remodelling and make it work for our lifestyle going forward.

195

One question I've constantly been asked is,

196

you know, don't you regret not having a nursery to decorate and it's kind of,

197

it hasn't even crossed my mind being in a small home and not having a nursery to decorate.

198

It's going to be fun setting up the little bits and pieces that we do have and they've been well thought out.

199

So when the baby comes along we do have a nice bassinet

200

which we have colour matched to our in-built furniture in the house and with the laundry how it is.

201

It's going to be a great space, you know, to change nappies.

202

We are going to set all that up and utilise the laundry space to make that work for us and again,

203

shut it away so it's not staring us in the face.

204

One of the great things with utilising shipping containers is it is really easy just to add another one on

205

when you need it too.

206

Yeah, so even in that end container we've sort of decided if we were going to extend where it would be.

207

So even a window is positioned in a place where that's going to make it more easy to do in the future.

208

I love that kind of future-proofing because it just goes to show you've really thought this all through.

209

Yeah definitely, that's kind of like the great thing with containers is they're all going to be the same size, they're all going to slot together well and it's never going to really be out of place.

210

It's not like you're slapping on some out of the blue extension, it's going to be quite a uniform sort of growth for the house.

211

This home is beautifully done.

212

Can you talk to me about the cost involved in actually

213

realising this build all up for the build it cost us

214

145 000 australian dollars there is quite a bit of joinery obviously involved as well

215

so with a substantial amount of the cost being involved in the joinery aspect

216

that also includes all of our solar all of our design fees

217

and also the septic treatment plant for all of that together

218

and the size and the quality of this home that's a great price.

219

Absolutely.

220

So one thing we really wanted was a quality home

221

and also something that we're really proud of and that is aesthetically pleasing whenever you walk through the door.

222

The fact that we thought so well about what we're putting into the house

223

and how it's laid out and what joinery is working where, it's such a pleasant space to be in.

224

This home for us, how we feel walking in at the end of a busy day

225

or if we've been traveling for work

226

or on holidays it's very peaceful not only

227

because of the environment it's set around

228

but we have loved every aspect of this home from the design phase through to finish

229

so it's just a beautiful sanctuary to be in

230

you have both done such a great job of this home

231

it's awesome to see how well it's working for both of you

232

and I'm sure it's going to be great as your family grows.

233

Thank you so much for sharing your home with me.

234

Thank you for coming.

235

Thank you, Ross.

236

Cheers.

237

I am just so impressed with this house.

238

Each and every aspect of it has just been

239

so well considered from the interior which is very functional right the way to the interesting aesthetics of the exterior.

240

Already as a couple this house has served them very well

241

and there is no doubt in my mind that when When the new member arrives, this is going to be a beautiful family home.

242

Thank you.

쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법

쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
