The floor and ceiling have different levels and are divided by hanging walls and hip walls to create three-dimensional places for each person to live, even though the house is a single room. The exterior of the house is closed to the outside because it faces the road on three sides, but it has a pleated structure to give it depth and breadth. The terraces and openings are concentrated on the east side in order to obtain a view of the hillside.
