I have read the previous posting about house orientation and its got me a little concerned!!! Myself and my partner are planning to build a house with all of our living rooms facing the SW including an outdoor alfresco area facing the same direction. The reason for this is because we get an amazing view of the whole city and a few ocean glipses.
Are we crazy or what?! We are of the thinking that if its not nice weather outside then we wont be using the alfresco anyway...but are we still going to be impacted by the orientation?
