There is a gas station at the back, a car paint shop at the front, a wasteland on one side, and an old shop house on the other side. Being in the center of these, air pollution from car engines and fume removes peacefulness around the house.

With these conditions, the interior space of this house seeks excitement and pleasure. This also includes avoiding disturbance from outside.

The first major component is a ramp.

The ramp leads one to every part of this house. Starts from an entrance to a parking space, a courtyard, and a little pond. There is a big tree in the courtyard that can be seen from the inside. This ramp continues to the interior space downstairs where there is a kitchen, dining room, and drawing room.

The ramp reaches a stair that leads the inhabitants to the second floor, passing a large bedroom and a small bedroom. It ends at the top of the house where there is a living room.

An airy courtyard is designed as compensation as the outer spaces of this house becomes a buffer zone that protects the house. This courtyard allows one to enjoy the stars at night.
