There is one home in Alibaug that does not need celebrity names to make it an instantly recognisable address. Hop into a rickshaw at Mandwa Jetty and simply say, 'Container Home'. The rickshaw will trundle off to Jirhad village in Alibaug, coming to a halt outside a vibrant orange and black one-storey home made entirely of shipping containers. The Pardiwalas of Cuffe Parade have put a new spin into the fashionable Alibaug address. Their house is called the Orange Box project, but locally known simply as Container Home.

Mishal Pardiwala, 32, said, "My grandmother, father, Hyder, mother, Hansu, and brother, Mikail, and I call the home, 'The Orange Box Project' because we are looking eventually for it to become an artist's retreat, hold workshops in the space, etc. This is for the future. Right now though, it is our home. While the structure is complete, the interiors are still being done. We have to install beds, cupboards, cabinets and living room seating."
