This project explores a conceptual reinterpretation of the courtyard as a generative spatial core from which the rest of the house radiates. The modular strategy—courtyard-centered living, working, and guest units—is conceptually engaging. However, the architectural representation lacks depth in plan articulation and spatial hierarchy. While the ecological use of timber and passive thermal strategies is noted, the structural and formal resolution remains underdeveloped. Greater clarity in internal circulation, section development, and programmatic zoning would elevate the proposal from a theoretical concept to a more architecturally grounded solution.
