Question

From the article, how was bahay-kubo regarded? Draw the bahay-kubo
with its parts labeled according to the article’s description and purposes.

"The bahay kubo was the original sustainable house," says Angelo Mañosa. "In its form, it already embodies all the design principles we think of as 'green.' It is made of low-cost, readily available indigenous materials and it is designed for our tropical climate: the tall, steeply-pitched roof sheds monsoon rain while creating ample overhead space for dissipating heat, the long eave lines provide shade. The silong underneath the house creates a simple, utilitarian space while allowing ventilation from below through the bamb00 slat floors. The large awning windows, held open by a simple tukod (sturdy rod), provide cross ventilation and natural light. All of the materials used in it are organic, renewable and readily available at little cost. And yet it is strong enough to withstand typhoons. The bahay kubo even survived the ash fall from Mt. Pinatubo, when more 'modern' houses collapsed."
