    Raised single-storey house

    Take the house apart layer by layer before you build

    A modern tropical single-storey house raised above the ground to reduce flood risk, with the open level below used for lounging and parking, plus solar and ERV. Scroll to see it layer by layer, from the roof down to the piles.

    Layer 7 · Roof

    Low-pitch hip roof in ceramic-coated steel on a Smart Truss frame

    Decide hereRoof profile and colour, pitch and eave depth

    A low-pitch, four-sided hip roof in CMR or Innoroof ceramic-coated steel roofing in mocha brown, on a Smart Truss frame. The sheets are lightweight, and eaves reach out on every side for shade and rain cover. The roof in this model is pitched at 7 degrees.

    Our approachWe use the Smart Truss frame specified in the Standard Eco package. Truss sizes, spacing and roof pitch are set by the engineer. Both roofing makers state a 30-year colour warranty, under their own conditions.

    Problem it solvesDriving rain and sun on glass walls: deep eaves and a hip roof give cover on all four sides.

    Before you build
    • Choose a roofing profile the maker approves for a 7-degree pitch. Innoroof, for example, states more than 3 degrees for its 760 and Snaplock 300 profiles, but more than 8 degrees for Spanish-wave 760.
    • Choose a roof colour that suits the walls and timber; both brands offer greys, browns and greens.
    • Where does gutter water go: a storage tank or a drain?
    Layer 6 · Electrical, solar & ERV

    Electrical, solar and ERV

    Decide hereKeeping electrical equipment high above the ground

    Roof solar feeds an inverter and battery mounted high above the open ground level. The ERV above the ceiling brings fresh air to every room and extracts stale air.

    Our approachStandard Eco includes 5 kW solar and conduit ready for an EV charger. Premium Wellness includes 8 kW solar, a TCL 10 kWh battery and an ERV with PM2.5 filtration.

    Problem it solvesFlood damage to electrical equipment: the panel board, inverter and battery are mounted high above the ground level.

    Before you build
    • Are the panel board, inverter and ground-level sockets above past flood levels in your area?
    • Which appliances must keep running during an outage?
    • Is the ERV intake kept away from the exhaust outlet?
    Layer 5 · Living floor

    The raised living floor

    Decide hereA one-level room plan that opens to breeze and views

    Every room is on one level: a master bedroom, two more bedrooms, and a living room and kitchen that open onto a long front balcony. Sliding louvre shutters filter the sun and let air through.

    Our approachA home should work at every stage of life. The Space & Lift package prepares the footing and shaft for a future lift.

    Problem it solvesA hot house and tiring stairs: every room is on one level, opens to breeze on two sides, and space can be reserved for a lift.

    Before you build
    • How will elderly family get up to the house: a ramp, or space reserved for a lift?
    • Which rooms take afternoon sun, and do shutters or eaves shade them?
    • Is the balcony railing high and strong enough?
    Layer 4 · Raised floor

    The raised floor structure

    Decide hereHow high the floor sits above the ground

    Main beams sit on the column heads and carry the joists and floor of the living level. In this model the floor is 3.6 m above ground; the real height depends on water levels and how you use the space below.

    Our approachStructures are designed by engineers to legal standards, with a 5-year main-structure warranty from final handover, within the scope and conditions of the contract.

    Problem it solvesWorry about water reaching the floor: the floor level is set from the real flood history of the land.

    Before you build
    • What is the highest flood level recorded in your area?
    • Does the space below need height for parking or sitting?
    • Which columns carry the pipes and cables up to the house?
    Layer 3 · Open ground level

    Living under the house

    Decide hereWhat the space under the house is for

    The ground level is open so air moves through, and works as a lounge, dining area and carport. Storage and laundry sit in a timber box on a raised plinth, and a two-flight stair leads up to the house.

    Our approachWe lift the house to give the ground back to daily life: shade below, air moving through, and room for water to pass in heavy rain.

    Problem it solvesA tight plot with no covered parking or sitting area: the space under the house does both without another roof.

    Before you build
    • Could things stored below be damaged if water rises, and how high should they be kept?
    • Does the ground slab fall so water can drain away?
    • Is the stair wide and gentle enough for everyone at home?
    Layer 2 · Water & pool

    Water and pool systems

    Decide hereTank, pump and riser positions

    The storage tank and pump sit on a raised plinth, and clean water climbs a column to the bathrooms and kitchen. Wastewater goes to the septic tank, and roof rainwater is stored for the garden.

    Our approachWe fix pipe types and routes in the drawings so the house stays easy to maintain after move-in.

    Problem it solvesPumps and tanks damaged by rising water, and puddles around the house: services sit on plinths and a rain garden takes storm water.

    Before you build
    • Are the water pump and pool filter above past flood levels?
    • Does the septic tank have an access lid, away from the driveway?
    • Are the risers on the columns fixed securely and easy to reach?
    Layer 1 · Piles & stilt columns

    Bored piles, footings and stilt columns

    Decide herePile type and column size to suit the actual soil

    The stilt columns stand on footings and bored piles, tied together at the base by ground beams. Bored piles reduce noise during construction.

    Our approachBored piles come with the Premium Wellness package and are an option on other packages, priced from the soil survey.

    Problem it solvesWorry about settlement in soft soil: piles are chosen from the soil survey and columns are tied together at the base.

    Before you build
    • Survey the soil before choosing the pile type and length.
    • Is the land near a waterway or in a low-lying area?
    • Can machinery get onto the site?

    Architecture analysis

    Architecture analysis: orientation, light, wind and basic feng shui

    This example house assumes the front faces south to explain the thinking behind placing a house. The real orientation of every project must be read from its own plot first.

    NGarageKitchen · bathHallLivingPool Morning sunNoon sun (south)Afternoon sun Hot/rainy-season windCool-season wind
    Concept diagram, not a construction drawing · the 3D model above includes a compass and the sun path

    Orientation and sun

    Afternoon sun from the west is the hottest, so the garage sits on that side as a buffer. The living room and tall glass face south under deep eaves, bedrooms take morning sun from the east, and the solar panels sit on the south roof.

    Cool house

    Cut heat before relying on air conditioning: eaves shade the glass, ridge and soffit vents carry hot roof-space air out, west-facing openings are kept small, and trees and the pool cool the breeze entering the house.

    A house that breathes

    Openings face each other so wind can cross the house. The double-height hall lets hot air rise and escape. With the house closed and the A/C on, the ERV supplies fresh air and removes stale air.

    Basic feng shui

    Principles often used alongside design: an open, bright front with water ahead, a solid back, front and back doors not in line, an entry hall before the main spaces, no bathroom at the centre of the house, and beds against a solid wall.

    Feng shui is a personal belief, and the design team can follow the master or principles the owner prefers. Sun and wind directions are general rules for Thailand’s climate; the actual plot must be surveyed before design.
