That's true, AP2, as seen if you drive around any development no matter how expensive? Trying to impose western design into a tropical country forces some compromises.

If you look earlier in my thread, when I posted the floor plans and elevations, you will see windows much more in keeping with ancient Thailand. Narrower windows, higher up in the wall so that the light still comes but a lot of the window is under the roof overhang.

Yes, there are some folding door arrangements which are glazed and obviously an 'in' for both light and heat. There will be blackout curtains in the bedroom with reflective material facing out to reduce this effect as much as possible. All of those folding doors are under big overhangs too.
