Traditional Thai Teak House : 4 units / Room Area 90 sq.m.
The traditional Thai teak house is ideally adapted to its environment as the design of the high-pitched roof and its elevated height off the ground promotes air movement and circulation. To maintain authenticity and to keep them environmentally friendly the houses feature wooden windows (with insect screens) that, when open, allow for the natural flow or air. The open windows and breezeways, in combination with a large central terrace, provide ideal ventilation and offer relief from the hot and humid climate. Overhanging roof eaves provide shade and protect the house from both sun and rain. Rainwater quickly sluices off of the high pitched roof and is drained off of the terrace through the gaps in the wood. Just listening to the tropical rains booming down on your roof is a treat to be experienced.
