Among the smaller houses, those limited to a single or two multifunctional rooms tend to extend into a private backyard. This backyard is clearly defined and enclosed by a rigid fence, marking a deliberate separation from the communal ground. Within this enclosure, most everyday activities are absorbed: cooking, washing clothes and utensils, drying laundry, and storing household items. What cannot be accommodated inside the compact rooms is displaced into this narrow open strip, turning the backyard into an essential extension of the house rather than an auxiliary space.

The house distinguished by its thatched roof reflects a more constrained set of resources. Its form is minimal, shaped less by choice than by necessity. The dwelling consists of a single multifunctional room accompanied by a small private courtyard. All domestic activities unfold into this backyard, similar to the other small houses. Together, these houses show how spatial form is directly shaped by constraint, where limited interiors push domestic life into carefully controlled open spaces. Whether enclosed as a private backyard or held within a small courtyard, these extensions become critical architectural devices for managing daily life, privacy, and use.
