How to judge the orientation of the house
The orientation of the house is also called "sitting orientation". In fact, when facing the gate, the direction you face is the opposite direction, sitting with your back to you. So all the houses facing south in China are north houses, and the doors are open on the south wall of the houses. In modern buildings, the orientation of doors is mostly east-west, so the orientation of sitting now mostly depends on which direction the main lighting surface of the room is. If the lighting surface of the main room is in the south, it is said to face south.
The orientation of the house comes from the front and back orientation when people sit. When people sit, the position of the spine is sitting, and the position of the front of the body is facing. That is to say, face to face and sit on the back. The "sitting" of the house is the azimuth of the rear end of the central axis of the longitudinal building on the ground plane, and the direction is the azimuth of the front end of the central axis. In geomantic omen, twenty-four mountains are used to represent the sitting orientation of a house. The sitting direction of the house is determined by the longitudinal axis of the building. Generally speaking, the vertical line of the back wall of a house is sitting, and the other end of this vertical line is sitting. Sitting orientation includes sitting orientation of the house and sitting orientation of the door. The door and the house sit in the same direction, but there are also differences. For doors with different orientations from the house, additional measurements should be taken.
What is a good direction?
In China, people pay the most attention to orientation when buying a house. A good orientation can make the house warm in winter and cool in summer. In the south, sitting facing south is the best orientation, so Cantonese people especially like houses facing south. However, experts in the industry said that for young people with tight pace of life and busy work, but not very strong economic ability, it is more suitable to choose a house facing north. "They are in the stage of starting a business. They get up early and work hard. The sunshine at home means little to them. The sun has just risen in the morning, and they have left the nest. It was not until the sky was full of stars that they set foot on their way home. If you don't add some exquisite furniture, you can enjoy the warm world by looking at the dim night outside the window. " The expert also analyzed that, generally speaking, the structure of a house facing north is relatively reasonable, and the lighting area is large, which does not affect indoor lighting, but the direct sunlight time is short.
Facing south is not necessarily the best.
"Look at this plan to choose which apartment is the most cost-effective? The middle two rooms face south, but the north and south are not ventilated; The living room on the side is afraid of direct sunlight in summer, and the east set is more expensive than the west set per square meter, close to 800 yuan. " Entangled buyers ask questions online.
Is it best if the house faces south? A professor from the School of Civil Engineering and Architecture said that the orientation of the house is related to the region, topography, wind direction and the direction of the surrounding roads. It is better for the house to face south, or south east-west 15 degrees. Considering the wind direction and ventilation factors, it is normal for residential building design to be 30 degrees east-west-south. For example, some houses facing southeast have even better living comfort than those facing south.
For some buildings in Wuhan now, some people think that there are some east-west multi-family rooms on the first floor instead of facing south. In fact, the design of residential buildings should also consider a variety of factors. If the direction of the roads around the property is not due east and west, it may also affect the direction of the property. However, even the east-west huxing, but also to meet the sunshine standards, which consumers can rest assured.
How to choose the interior of the house?
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." Expert analysis, 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, and the quality of its space use is particularly important. The living room still faces south, which is the best direction. The living room faces south, so 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.
The second is to pay attention to the orientation of the bedroom. For a small apartment with one bedroom and one living room, 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, the purchase should be judged according to the orientation of the master bedroom or most bedrooms. 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. If it is a two-bedroom or three-bedroom apartment, it is ok to have one bedroom facing north, so it is best not to choose a bedroom facing west.
