As is known, natural environment and ecological life are dramatically affected by building industry. Therefore ‘Sustainable architecture approach’ has become one of the most important cases as it proposes solutions to environmental problems and responds to needs of future generations. The main goal of sustainable architecture is to use renewable energy sources, to design environmentally friendly buildings that were built with recyclable building materials and to provide ecologically sensitive land use. In accordance with the objectives, although the initial investment cost for sustainable technologies is too much, they offer economic-ecological solutions for designers depending on energy saving overtime. It is also seen that containers, an innovative example of today and the future design, are intertwined with ecological and sustainable approach. In this regard, the purpose of the study is to draw attention to sustainable container architecture with low initial investment cost that has recently been in the agenda of architecture. In the study, container samples whose functions such as utilization of dwelling, office etc., are worldwide increasing are exampled and their design criteria is analyzed in terms of sustainability
