Most of the doors and windows can be adjusted to product from the heat of sun and having warm sunlight to come through.

Western side Wall having the less windows, and the north and east side having the most numbers of windows

Placing the west side of the cabin to the raod can aviod noise come into the house as the western site has less windows


As a  Container of Human Activities




Ground level is the public area and the upper level is the private area

Stairs divide the area

Since bedroom is place on the min level, can sepreate the working area and public more widely, making people when on the office, can become more concentrate.

Many types of windows having different functions, making the public and private area can be divided as what the household like.

As the private areas place at the higher space, people at the public area (lower space) hard to see the private area, but when people in private area (high space), it is easy to see what's going on at the ground level
