Product Introduction
120 Square Meter Single-Story House Design (Philippines/Chile/Papua New Guinea)
I. Floor Plan (Dimensions: 10m × 12m, Total Area: 120㎡)
Layout Description
The house adopts a practical rectangular layout, fully adapting to the climate characteristics (high temperature, heavy rainfall in tropical regions, high seismic risk, and coastal salt spray in partial areas) of the Philippines, Chile, Peru and Papua New Guinea (PNG). It is divided into functional zones: 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, an open kitchen, a living room, and a covered porch (to resist rain, strong sunlight, and tropical cyclones in PNG coastal areas). The overall design ensures good ventilation and lighting, with large windows installed in the living room and bedrooms, and complies with each country's core building codes for seismic resistance, moisture-proofing, and fire safety.
Zone Details
Living Room: 4m × 5m = 20㎡. Located in the center of the house, connected to the open kitchen and porch for convenient daily activities and socializing.
Open Kitchen: 3m × 4m = 12㎡. Adjacent to the living room, with a countertop separating the two areas. Equipped with a window (≥15% of the kitchen area) for smoke exhaust and ventilation, complying with the Philippines' National Building Code (NBCP) natural ventilation requirements. A smoke detector connected to a local alarm system is recommended to meet Chile's Norma Chilena (NCh) 2353 fire safety standards, and the cooking area maintains a 1.5m distance from interior walls per NBCP.
Bedrooms:
Master Bedroom: 4m × 4.5m = 18㎡. With an en-suite bathroom (3m × 2m = 6㎡), a built-in wardrobe, and a large window facing south for natural light.
Bedroom 2: 3.5m × 4m = 14㎡. Suitable for children or guests, with a built-in wardrobe.
Bedroom 3: 3.5m × 4m = 14㎡. Multi-functional room, can be used as a bedroom or study.
Bathrooms:
En-suite Bathroom (Master Bedroom): 3m × 2m = 6㎡. Equipped with a toilet, shower, and sink.
Public Bathroom: 3m × 2m = 6㎡. Located between Bedroom 2 and Bedroom 3, equipped with a toilet, shower, and sink for shared use.
Corridor: 1.5m × 8m = 12㎡. Connects all rooms, ensuring smooth traffic flow.
Covered Porch: 2m × 5m = 10㎡. Located at the entrance, providing a transition space and protecting the door from rain. For PNG coastal areas, the porch is reinforced with wind-resistant brackets and roof truss spacing reduced to 600mm to resist tropical cyclones (wind speed ≥150km/h), in line with the PNG National Building Code (2014).
Door & Window Layout
Main Door: 1 set (1.2m × 2.1m). Located at the porch, made of anti-corrosion aluminum alloy with a security lock.
Bedroom Doors: 3 sets (0.9m × 2.1m each). Interior wooden doors with sound insulation.
Bathroom Doors: 2 sets (0.8m × 2.1m each). Waterproof aluminum alloy doors.
Windows: 8 sets in total. Large sliding windows (1.5m × 1.8m each) in the living room and master bedroom; casement windows (1.2m × 1.5m each) in other bedrooms and kitchen. All windows adopt double-layer tempered glass with anti-UV and sound insulation functions, equipped with mosquito screens (mandatory in the Philippines' tropical regions) and marine-grade aluminum alloy frames for PNG coastal salt spray resistance, complying with local corrosion standards.
II. Material List, Quantity & Budget

III. Notes
The floor plan can be adjusted according to local climate and living habits (e.g., expanding the porch in the Philippines' heavy rainfall areas, elevating the floor slab for PNG flood resilience). All adjustments must align with local building codes (NBCP for Philippines, NCh series for Chile, PNG National Building Code 2014 for PNG).
The light steel structure is suitable for the seismic and climate conditions of the target countries, with the advantages of light weight, high strength, and fast construction. Seismic design parameters are tailored to each region: Philippines (Seismic Zone 4), Chile (Seismic Zone 5), PNG (Seismic Zone 3-4), and anti-seismic connections are mandatory.
All materials meet local building codes and have good durability and adaptability to the local environment (e.g., anti-corrosion, anti-UV, moisture-proof). Additional measures include termite barriers (Philippines), reflective roof coatings (Chile northern regions), and marine-grade materials (PNG coastal areas).
Administrative compliance: Secure a Building Permit (Philippines), Permiso de Construcción (Chile), or Building Approval (PNG) before construction. Engage local licensed engineers for on-site supervision, especially for structural connections and waterproofing, to ensure code adherence during implementation.
