The house relies on trees naturally. All the spaces are permeated by plants, wind and sunlight.

According to the topography, building platform is elevated to avoid termite, humid as well as ensure natural surface drainage. The design adheres to local vegetation and existent terrain.

Adobe bricks were built from the earth in its own land. Broad expanse thatched roof which creates shadow itself, sound-proof and control solar radiation efficiently.

Staircase is a highlight, evoking the image of rice straw stack that has been entrenched in the owner's subconscious. Its roof covers by glass panels casting a crescent shaped shadow.
