How the room is composed

layout
A circular room assigns hearth, sleeping platforms, animal space, and storage around a central working area under a steep roof.
materials
Timber poles, woven branches, grass thatch, earth, hide, banana fibre, clay, and gourd form a cool highland enclosure.
furniture
Low beds, stools, baskets, gourds, storage racks, cooking vessels, and animal partitions follow the curved perimeter.
lighting
Green-filtered grove light enters through a low doorway while the hearth warms the dark roof and compact occupied surfaces.
decoration
Basket weave, gourds, hide, carved utensils, and the dense roof structure provide warmth tied to agroforestry life.
