better to the climate and its surroundings.
• The design of the roof provides efficient
shading to counter its hot sun during noon

short cross-ventilation routesAir vents designed to promote natural
ventilation
IMPROVES NATURAL
VENTILATION

16. COVEREDVERANDA
Traditional
Long strip of space with 1.5 metre high
walls on the side of the house
Can be changed into an indoor area when
covered by a convertible roof
Modern
Roof is made permanent instead of
convertible
Allows smooth transition between
outdoor to indoor spaces
Acts as semi-public area by supplying
natural sunlight and ventilation
17. STILTS
Traditional
Allow the structure to be elevated above the ground level
Helps provide space for storage, protection from floods
and dangerous wildlife
Modern
No longer possess stilt feature but tries to incorporate in design
Creating an under-floor air circulation and reducing humidity in
the living spaces
18. CHAAN
Traditional
Largest open space in the whole house and
Initially is an open roofless space, to contribute
to the supply of sunlight and ventilation
Modern
Roof is incorporated to allow for more space to
be usable during rain and extreme heat, slowly
transforming the central terrace into an indoor
space
Has walls to make it a bigger room
19. HOW DOES THE MODERNIZATION IN THAILAND AFFECT THE
CHANGE OF MATERIALS USED IN MODERN THAI HOUSES
COMPARED TO THEIR TRADITIONAL COUNTERPARTS?
24. BALANCE BY HIERARCHY
The Chaan (Terrace)
Resembles hierarchy in both traditional and
modern Thai buildings affects the natural light
falling onto the building itself which plays an
important role in architecture. This can be seen in
the Triangle House. The chaan is the largest public
space which functions as the heart of the central
Thai houses which is grouped by cabins, occupies
40% of the floor plan(figure 1, area 3). This open
space allows prevailing winds to flow into the
building through the openings

25. BALANCE BY HIERARCHY
High Pitched-roof
High pitched-roof was designed to adapt
to local climate and function as climate
control system. The roof in the Triangle
House was designed in a large surface
area of heat insulation roof tiles with long
eaves and the roof height allows air
ventilation to occur and for heat to rise up
and flow away from the living space and
escape through the openings under the
eaves and this can be seen in figure 4, 5
and 6.

Figure 6
26. BALANCE BY SYMMETRY
Floor Plan
The axis of symmetry is nearly symmetrical in the
Triangle House when compared to the traditional
Thai houses. This shows that it can be described as
having equal weight on equal sides of a centrally
placed fulcrum (in this case the chaan). This can be
shown in figure 1 which is the ground floor plan of
the Triangle House.
