It is an exploration of the combination of the 2 which they are inter-supporting each other in terms of construction method, spatial definition, and prototyping. Spatial: Each module consists of solid earth block wall and light bamboo structure. The house is defined by the solid earth block, in which the flexible light bamboo structure opens up to the courtyard created by the 4 modules. Outside, you will only see 4 solid walls. Inside the module, you will experience the privacy created by the solid wall and the publicity by the bamboo sturcture. In the courtyard, it is enlcosed by the light bamboo which open up to the sky. As a result, the concept of private and public spatial quality is well defined while at the same time, the flexible bamboo panels can create different spatial usages withn the house. Prototyping: This is a module prototyping house, a house composed of 4 modules. Each module is 13.8 sqm. The assembly method is the same for each unit, thus, if you know how to build one module, you know how to build them all. The house size can be contracted or expanded according to the size of the module. The pinwheel concept can be further carried on for housing clusters. 1 house 2 houses 3 houses 4 houses = 1 cluster all close - 4 individual spaces semi-open - 1 continuous space all open - 1 open space semi-open - 2 spaces internal flexible spaces external flexible spaces visual connection extend to the courtyard 1 cluster 2 clusters 3 clusters 4 clusters 4 clusters = 1 community

It is an exploration of the combination of the 2 which they are inter-supporting each other in terms of construction method, spatial de�nition, and prototyping. Spatial:Each module consists of solid earth block wall and light bamboo structure. The house is de�ned by the solid earth block, in which the �exible light bamboo structure opens up to the courtyard created by the 4 modules. Outside, you will only see 4 solid walls. Inside the module, you will experience the privacy created by the solid wall and the publicity by the bamboo sturcture. In the courtyard, it is enlcosed by the light bamboo which open up to the sky. As a result, the concept of private and public spatial quality is well de�ned while at the same time, the �exible bamboo panels can create di�erent spatial usages withn the house.Prototyping: This is a module prototyping house, a house composed of 4 modules.
