In an interview with architect Grant (2025), he emphasised the importance of creating a structure that responds well to humid climates. He states that "A light-coloured faade was used to reflect heat, but a better job could have been done to incorporate deeper eaves for better shading." This aligns with sustainable design literature, which highlights the significance of shading and passive design strategies such as orienting buildings to maximise natural light and ventilation to reduce reliance on artificial lighting and air-conditioning. When discussing the layout, the architect acknowledged the limitations imposed by the garage-forward design. "Cross-ventilation is crucial." The literature review supports this, indicating that maximising airflow through strategic window placement can significantly lower temperatures." The researcher also gained additional perspective on how such architectural strategies are perceived and utilised in practice from the questionnaire administered to residents
