The ground floor contains shared parking for 4 cars + 5 motorcycles. The ground floor also contains the septic tank that is buried under the parking lot.

There is a staircase leading to the 4 floors above, each floor with a 3 bedroom apartment. Each apartment has its entrance from a naturally light and ventilated stairway.

The living room, dining and kitchen are in an open plan layout.
