We worked wi th the cheifs of the vi llag e, our cli ents, duri ng our d esign process to specify exactly wha t they wou ld like bui l t. We spent 4 weeks bui ldi ng thi s home wi th help from masons i n the vi llag e. Our fi nal outcome was a bea utifu lly crafted cottag e wi th a breezeway and a slanted roof for their i ntense cli ma te, and functional li vi ng qua ters for the teachers.
