Wisdom of Home Building, Okinawa Prefecture
Heat measures in Okinawa, which belongs to the subtropical region! Introducing house building aimed at extending the lifespan of buildings.
This document introduces house building in Okinawa, which belongs to the subtropical region. Okinawan houses exhibit a unique structure not seen in Honshu. This is a clever adaptation to the heat and high humidity of Okinawa. To combat the heat, large openings in the walls and windows are created, arranged to allow for airflow. Floors are typically elevated to enable ventilation underneath, allowing moisture to escape. Additionally, to mitigate damage from direct typhoon hits, it is common to plant trees around the property, create groves, or surround the area with stone walls, which are characteristics of Okinawan homes. **Main Measures** - Utilization of natural wind - Sunlight shielding - Shielding of exterior walls and roofs - Heat and insulation measures for openings *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.*
