Facing south is not necessarily the best.
Is it best if the house faces south? Professionals believe that this is not necessarily true. The orientation of the house is related to the region, topography, wind direction and the direction of the surrounding roads. Houses facing south can keep enough sunshine, and the sunshine can reach the same depth in winter, which makes people feel bright and warm. In summer, the sunshine is direct, but the room can't be exposed to strong sunlight. Secondly, the house can maintain good ventilation and ensure the freshness and dryness of the room.
Generally speaking, houses facing south, southeast and southwest have good lighting. It is enough to receive 2-3 hours of sunlight indoors a day. If you can accept 1-2 hours of sunshine, it will be helpful to eliminate indoor moisture, kill bacteria, adjust indoor temperature and accelerate air flow.
The orientation preference of houses is also very different between the north and the south. Northerners like to choose the middle set, which is more energy-saving and warm in winter. Cities in southern Guangdong are not very particular about the orientation of houses, because the latitude is low and the direct angle of the sun is large, even houses facing north will have good lighting. Shanghainese prefer the north-south transparent type with good lighting and ventilation.
Many factors should also be considered comprehensively in the design of residential buildings. If the direction of the roads around the property is not due east and west, it may also affect the direction of the property.
The orientation of the master bedroom in the living room is the most important.
As far as the indoor space of a house is concerned, the orientation of the living room and bedroom is the most important. According to industry insiders, in addition to paying attention to the orientation of the whole house, the orientation of indoor room layout is also very important. Property buyers should also carefully observe the layout of the living room, bedroom and kitchen when looking at the house.
The first is the orientation of the living room, which is the room with the highest utilization rate and the largest number of users in a house. The living room faces south, which is the best direction. You can bask in the sun in winter and have a cool breeze in summer. If it is an east-west living room, especially the owners of low floors must pay attention to the spacing between adjacent buildings.
Secondly, the orientation of the bedroom. For a small apartment, the orientation of the bedroom is naturally the same as that of the house, and the south direction is the best orientation. If there are two or three bedrooms, their orientation will be different. At this time, the orientation of the master bedroom or most bedrooms should be taken as the criterion. The bedroom is best facing south, but it is best not to lean against the outer wall. Because in summer, although there is a cool breeze in the bedroom in the south, there is more sunshine entering the room than in the north. If the exterior wall faces west, the room will be exposed for a whole day and the indoor temperature will be very high. Bedroom orientation can also be southeast, east and northeast. It is best not to choose a bedroom facing west. If it is two-bedroom or three-bedroom, one bedroom faces north.
Third, the orientation of the kitchen and bathroom. Toilets are generally damp and easy to breed germs, so it is necessary to keep lighting and ventilation. It is best to avoid choosing a bathroom facing west. Because the kitchen itself will produce lampblack, its indoor air needs to be constantly exchanged with the outside world. Due to the large amount of oil smoke produced in the kitchen, the formation time is short, and natural ventilation is difficult to discharge in a short time. Therefore, a range hood or an exhaust fan is generally used to exhaust air, and it is best not to choose the true north direction in the kitchen.
In fact, for many of our first-time home buyers, because they don't have professional knowledge, most of them are listening to the sales staff when choosing to buy a house. They tell you in a daze and hand over the money happily. Once the house was handed over, they found that the actual situation was far from imagination. Learn to be a smart homebuyer, and buy a house rationally from the beginning of understanding the "huxing positioning".
