    A newlywed couple has hired an architect to design a simple and affordable two-story house on a lot inherited from the wife's parents. The architect must design the house within the couple's limited budget. The lot is inside a residential neighborhood and has dimensions of 20m by 18m with one side adjacent to a 15m road. The design objectives are to apply national building codes for setbacks and use specific floor tile counts on the ground floor while incorporating green design elements. The architect must solve for zoning classification, lot dimensions, building footprint area, paved/unpaved surface areas, percentage of lot coverage, and gross floor area.
