These are some of my favorite shipping container home designs.

This is cool, but that roof would blow away.

This one is a great size, and looks passive solar.

Shipping containers are treated with tons of pesticides and other chemicals. I don't know that much about the refrigerated ones. Normally you have to seal in the chemicals like asbestos.

Also they are not strong enough to be completely buried.
