Continuing from part 1 

Continuing from part 1. There are somethings which you should know when positioning your room

·         The Kitchen should be next to or near the car port as to allow for the movement of groceries.

·         The Dining room should be next to or near the Kitchen as to allow for the free movement of prepared food

·         There should be a powder room around the Living and Dining room areas as to avoid guest from using or entering the family’s private area.

Step 3

Location of the bedrooms should be considered in respect to the cardinal points I.E. east / west. The wind generally blows from north or northeast in Trinidad, hence the ideal location for the master bedroom is there. This may be a problem in some cases due to the sharp slope of the land or other constraints such as the topography or the entrance to the property.

Step 4
Room sizes should also be considered as well as the culture of the family. These questions should be asked: Do you like to entertain? And if your answer is yes, then your living room and public areas should be designed to accommodate guests. Maybe an open concept should be considered.
