Remembering the Home

In my life time,i had been stay in two different type of house,bungalow and semi-d.i moving into a semi-d since 1995.Both of them are in a same form which is a square and symmetry.

My dad is a contractor and he built up our home now.Not design from any Architect.Because lack of the knowledge of architecture,my dad din do any site analysis before build up the form and it doesn't match with the environment.The whole building is just paste on a piece of land,a huge land.The building is created by concrete brick which brings heavy and stable to people.My dad also create a huge compound surrounding the building and its expose under the sunlight.(it is too bad that wasting a large space)The plan of the building is square in form and separate it into space.The living room is the largest space for my house,its a hierarchy of the building,that's good because living room is also a gathering area.Behind the living room is a courtyard but because adding members to the family my dad transform the courtyard into a room.

The building provide a better ventilation and natural light,it an open space from living room to the kitchen,And there is a huge opening provided at the living room and kitchen so that daylight and air can passing through the whole building.I think this is the best part for my house.i mean in architecture view,it shows energy effiency.If i got the chance to become an Architect,i will do renovation on my house,using the concept of sustainable change it into a low energy house,of course i wil adding vegetations at the huge compound.

I believe that the place people growing up will influences a persons consciousness and design thinking.I m try to make my house to become a better building and i am moving foword on it.
