There is a common space, three bedrooms, and an office space inside the property.

Rooms are large and placed in an open floor plan, which helps them to take in natural light and fresh air.

Most of the furniture is made from wood, and the main decorative theme of the house is tropical combined with minimalism.

Many furniture items were made from sustainable heat-proof materials, which last longer and help cool the room temperature.

“Everything - from the house’s composition, the materials, the colors, to the items used inside - has a warm gorgeous vibe,” a representative of the architect team said. “This matches the house owner’s preferences.”

The architects also took advantage of the “dead corners” to maximize the space usage.

For example, the room under the staircase was made into a space for tea drinking.
