Building tips for a quiet farm home
Agricultural engineers from the University of Illinois offer farming home construction advice. They urge placing the house at least 100 feet from the road for privacy and reduced noise, locating the driveway near the main entrance, and aligning kitchen windows with the driveway and service area. They recommend southern or eastern exposure for living areas and bedrooms where summer winds provide cooling. Sunshine lowers heating costs and window awnings can limit summer sun. In Amsterdam, Holland, more than a third of residents own bicycles.
