3. UNDERGROUND HOUSE
• Underground house or earth-sheltered dwellings lie
mostly beneath the Earth's surface. These houses
are in expensive to heat and cool since the
surrounding soil acts as natural insulation.
• Underground buildings (at least some) depend entirely
upon the insulation provided by the soil surrounding
walls and floors. Others, however, have tubes
channeled through them to bring in fresh air.
• Most underground dwellings are made of concrete.
Some other advantages of building underground are
lower insurance premiums, natural sound insulation,
less susceptibility to fire, high winds, hailstorms and
tornadoes to name a few.
4. TREE HOUSE
• Tree houses can be built with a wide range of material.
Wood is commonly used for structural parts
and cladding due to its strength, light weight and low
cost. Steel is used for brackets, cables and bolts,
including specialized tree bolts capable of supporting up to
6,000 pounds (2,700 kg). Builders of tree houses
sometimes use recycled materials or parts, such as
reclaimed window frames, doors and used lumber. Fabrics
can be used to produce non-rigid temporary structures
that are more like tree tents than tree house. Since the
mid-1990s, recreational tree houses have enjoyed a rise
in popularity in countries such as the united States and
parts of Europe.
5. APARTMENT
• By 1900, more than 75 percent of urban
Americans were living in apartments.
Apartments served as a second residence
for many wealthy Americans and offered a
convenient, respectable, and safe
residence near work for urban singles and
middle-class families. San Francisco's
Tenderloin district, then a middle-class
neighborhood with residential hotels and
apartment houses, was popularly known as
"the apartment house district."
6. TERRACED HOUSE
• In architecture and city planning, a terraced
house, terrace, row house, linked
house or townhouse (though the last term can
also refer to patio houses) is a style of medium-
density housing that originated in Europe in the
16th century, where a row of identical or
mirror-image houses share side walls. The Place
des Vosges in Paris (1605–1612) is one of the
early examples of the style. The first and last
of these houses is called an end terrace, and is
often larger than the houses in the middle.
12. Group’s Opinion
There are a lot of different types of
houses in this world and each one of
them is really unique. Different
people live in each type of house.
And those houses are placed in
different places.
