Deep Eaves: The Roof is Larger Than the House

An island resort building interior with extremely deep eaves. Looking out from the interior, the roof extends outwards by more than two meters, casting a large shadow on the ground; beneath the eaves, dark wooden rafters and beams are visible, arranged regularly. Due to the deep eaves, no sunlight enters the interior even at noon, and doors can be fully opened even on rainy days. The edge of the eaves forms a clear horizontal line, cutting off the upper edge of the view. Avoid: using short eaves and uncovered roofs, adding sunshades and tarpaulins instead of eaves, allowing direct sunlight into the interior, enclosing the roof structure with a ceiling.

一個屋簷極深的海島度假建築室內。從室內往外看,屋頂向外挑出兩米以上,在地面投下一大片陰影;屋簷下方可以看到深色木構的椽與樑,規則排列。因為出簷深,即使正午也沒有陽光射進室內,雨天時也可以把門全部打開。屋簷的邊緣是一道清楚的水平線,把景色的上緣切掉。避免:使用短出簷與無遮蔽的屋頂、加裝遮陽簾與帆布取代出簷、讓陽光直射到室內、把屋頂構造用天花板封起來。
