Bring the lively atmosphere outside into your home simply by opening the door to stay in touch with the natural world. At the top of the wall, lay bricks at intervals for good ventilation. Delicate wooden furniture paired with raw concrete flooring makes the living area look and feel cool. This way can help you make the most use of all materials.

Your living area on the second floor can represent architectural and natural harmony. Position the column in line with the tree trunk and let it grow through the rooftop to create shade.
