02 Field note

How the room is composed

layout
A principal family room gathers hearth, sleeping, storage, and work, while stacked construction and roof paths connect houses across the steep village.
materials
Stone, heavy timber, earth plaster, carved wood, wool, woven cotton, leather, and metal form a robust seismic mountain enclosure.
furniture
Low platforms, carved chests, stools, shelves, baskets, hearth vessels, and textile storage keep the dark room organized around daily work.
lighting
A small valley-facing opening and roof gaps admit sharp mountain light, illuminating carving and saturated woven bands against dark timber.
decoration
Geometric wood carving, bright woven and embroidered cloth, beadwork, baskets, and domestic vessels add concentrated colour without staged exoticism.
