Cargo Architecture

In this episode of the EntreArchitect podcast, Mark sits down with Leslie Horn and Breck Crandell of Three Squared, Inc. to explore the innovative world of cargo architecture and the growing role of shipping containers in modern design and construction.

Leslie and Breck share their unique paths into the industry, their passion for sustainability, and how Three Squared has become a leader in modular design using shipping containers as primary building blocks. They discuss the technical and regulatory challenges that come with container construction, while highlighting the strength, durability, and cost-saving potential of offsite fabrication and modular methods.

The conversation dives into how this approach is not just about efficiency, but also about rethinking affordable housing and expanding design possibilities for architects and developers alike. Leslie and Breck also reflect on the importance of collaboration, staying open to new ideas, and why embracing discomfort is essential for innovation and growth in the architectural profession.

This week at EntreArchitect Podcast, Cargo Architecture with Leslie Horn and Breck Crandell.
