| The house faces west in the city where it is hot all year round. The surrounding land is not yet built on, so the building receives all the heat.

| Therefore, the designer's problem is to create the largest living space possible in a cramped, stuffy house. |
 |
| The functional areas are blurred in boundaries, allowing light to spread everywhere, and the wind to blow through the living room, dining table... |
 |
| Gardens are also scattered in the front yard, skylight, and backyard. |
 |
| The bedrooms are small but do not feel cramped thanks to the use of light-colored furniture and views of the green trees. The platform beds help the ceiling feel higher. |
 |
| Functional spaces such as WC, storage, and warehouse are neatly stored in wooden cabinets. The corridor helps connect the bedrooms, resting area on the 2nd floor and common living area on the 1st floor. |
 |
| Furniture in the house is minimalist, forming a block of cabinets-bookshelves-desks to help the rooms become more uniform and neat. |
 |
| Mobile partitions, light white curtains easily adjust light, expand space when needed. |
 |
| The completed house does not have many expensive furniture but brings a feeling of relaxation and happiness to the enthusiastic owner who takes care of every detail in the residence. |
