Cargo 88: Cargo Containers Transformed into a Luxury Hotel

Prepared to be wowed like I was. First impressions matter and from the moment you walk through the sliding doors you are welcomed to a space where imagination and innovation take shape, where industrial aesthetics and luxury coexist in perfect harmony. Cargo 88, nestled within Lusaka’s East Park Mall is a true amazing marvel, an architectural and design feature that seamlessly combines the industrial with the luxurious, it’s not just a hotel; it’s an experience. The hotel’s interior and exterior is an artful arrangement of cargo containers stacked like colossal Lego bricks, hinting at the unconventional adventure that awaits.

Stepping into your room, you’re greeted with a harmonious blend of raw container aesthetics and plush comfort. The rooms are impeccably designed, boasting a monochromatic palette that gives a sense of spaciousness you’d never expect from a container. Every detail is meticulously thought out, from the minimalist decor to the clever integration of recycled materials.

In a world increasingly focused on sustainability, Cargo 88 takes the lead. The use of cargo containers in its construction not only repurposes these industrial giants but also speaks to the idea of adaptive reuse, reducing the environmental footprint in style and I am here for it. Very well done.
