2+ Weekend house is a modern small house unit at Trebnie, Slovenia. Designed by Jure Kotnik Arhitekt, the house born because of high prices for real estate. It’s the system of two containers manufactures specially for housing. ConHouse pushes the development of containers manufactured especially for housing and office purposes. Before ConHouse small container houses projects was mostly made with usual cargo containers.

The 2+ is a two-level mini housing unit composed of two containers perpendicular to each other. It shows that a minimal number of containers combined in an innovative fashion offers fresh yet functional architectural solutions. Thanks to colors and minimalistic look the design of the house looks quite modern. The upper container provides a projecting roof above the entrance as well as serves to shelter the back terrace. The ceiling of the bottom container is also a terrace of the first floor.
