Hello Dana,
I've checked your project and all data about it and I've some comments that I hope will help you in your future projects.
I Quote you " using shipping containers and sustainable materials to have an environment-friendly building. " using shipping containers is a great idea for the recycling idea that serves the direction of sustainability and also it can help to accelerate the construction time as well as can be a good idea that helps to build a house that can be reconstructed in different areas and I encourage you for the idea.
You said that you have used sustainable materials, I cannot find a part the describe the materials you have used and whether it is a sustainable one or not.
On the ground floor, you've separated the living area part completely from the sleeping area, you can connect them with a small passage over the water.
I don't know why did you put the living area on the upper floor but I suggest moving it to the ground floor so the rooms can have privacy.
Overall, Good job, try to use this feedback for further development and I wish you good luck
thank you,
