The factors in assessing “good houses” are multidimensional

Abstract

This paper examines the key factors in evaluating a "good house." When designing and constructing a house, safety must be a priority throughout the entire process. Based on the characteristics of the intended user group, potential health and hygiene risks should be minimized, and the spatial configuration of living facilities should be thoughtfully planned. From a long-term perspective, the house should accommodate various user behaviors while balancing cost-effectiveness and visual appeal. Additionally, a well-equipped community with strong interpersonal relationships and a prime location contributes significantly to the overall convenience of a “good house.” Beyond its function as real estate, a house also holds cultural and financial value, both of which influence its evaluation. As societal needs evolve, factors such as energy efficiency, environmental sustainability, personalized design, and the ability to support multiple concurrent activities will increasingly shape the standards for evaluating a “good house.”
