Surrounding Balconies: A Ring on Every Floor

A double-story veranda encircling the house. Both upper and lower verandas are over 2.4 meters deep, wrapping around the front and sides of the house. The balustrade consists of slender wooden turned spindles or simple wooden slats, approximately 90 centimeters high, painted white. The upper veranda is directly supported by the columns extending from the lower level. On the veranda, there are rattan lounge chairs and a small table, with a wooden swing bench hanging. Avoid: making the veranda only a section on the front, making the veranda depth insufficient for use, using modern metal and glass railings, or having the upper and lower columns misaligned.

一圈繞著房子的雙層陽台。上下兩層的陽台深度都超過兩米四,一路繞過房子的正面與兩側;欄杆是細長的木旋柱或簡單的木條,高度約九十公分,漆成白色。上層的陽台由下層的柱子直接延伸上去支撐。陽台上放著藤編躺椅與一張小桌,吊著一張木製的鞦韆長椅。避免:把陽台只做在正面一段、讓陽台深度不足無法使用、使用鐵件與玻璃的現代欄杆、讓上下兩層的柱子不對齊。
