About Us

Box & Beam is a modular lodge builder in the UK with a different approach. We’re a small, family‑run team based in North East England, founded on the belief that beautiful spaces can be created sustainably. Our journey began with a simple idea: take the strength and versatility of shipping containers and transform them into bespoke living spaces that make people say “wow.”

What makes us better

Every lodge is crafted from shipping containers and adaptable to your needs

What makes us different is not just our product, but our people and values. Box & Beam is a family‑owned, founder‑led business, which means you get personal attention from the very people who started the company and believe deeply in what they do. We treat clients like friends, offering a warm, honest, and down‑to‑earth experience from first chat to final handover. When you build with Box & Beam, you’re not dealing with a faceless corporation; you’re collaborating with a family that truly cares about your project.

Bespoke & Client-Focused

Your needs drive the design. We don’t do one-size-fits-all. We craft each container lodge to reflect the owner’s personality and requirements. This bespoke philosophy ensures your home or cabin is as unique as you are.

Sustainable & Minimalist

We embrace minimalist design and sustainable practices. By upcycling shipping containers and using eco-friendly materials, we reduce waste and environmental impact. Plus, our designs favor simplicity and functionality, proving that small footprints can still feel spacious and luxurious.
