At night, the shadow of houses will change with the light of the moon and stars, just like expressions on people’s face. The columns on the outside walls are made of inorganic concrete, it seems rhythmic from outside. While the walls, beams and front door are mostly wooden.As night falls, lights are lightened up; the house looks warm and homey. Because of the wooden cantilever, the first floor seems floating, which makes the house fascinating. The columns and beams inside house are mostly built by nature materials, the wooden part make a great adjustment on the moisture.
