What kind of house does Ren live in?

It looks like a shipping container on the outside and definitely seems a lot less than the 1K apartments I see online. Does the type of house Ren lived in actually exist in Japan? And if it does, what's it called?

They totally do exist. Refurbished shipping containers into houses can still be quite costly to buy. They also refurb them into offices in building sites or when the need for temporary accommodation arises.

Man, Japan and their wacky housing. I honestly didn't know about this stuff before, but I found this link:

There's also capsule hotels which look like something out of space or the morgue:
