The word “contain” comes from Latin word “continere” meaning to hold together, to surround or to store. A container is a vessel that surrounds a usable volume of space and thus defines the spatial boundary between interior and exterior. And as a walk-in box with useful spatial dimensions, the container fulfils the prerequi­sites for use as a spatial module.
