drbubb Posted April 15, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2017 Video Tour of a KYOOB home "made from shipping containers" (priced at under P 999,000) HOUSES FOREIGNERS CAN OWN IN THE PHILIPPINES After talking to an architect friend here, I have to wonder: how long will this last before rusting?
