The highlight of the house design are the tukod posts that are an interpretation of the posts that hoist up the windows in a traditional Filipino house. The window design is also unique feature that represents the ventanillas of the bahay kubo.

Two full-sized toilet and baths is provided, as well as a sizeable kitchen with an island. There are generous spaces for wardrobe closets for each bedroom.
