There is a wooden room painted in the color of the gate that tended towards the east above the entrance. This house is also cleaned up from the loose exoticism, shutters, sheds, and picturesque motifs. Each and every constructive piece inside the house is redesigned by the architect, reinventing the stripped reality for this project.

In contrast to the color of the gate, the house interior looks more natural and warm. The interior is bright that comes from the white surfaces of the walls and ceiling. The same color is also chosen for the bed and several furniture. Wooden tables and chairs are added into the house rooms to create a beautiful variation of the interior besides the white bright atmosphere.
