You are right, They can easily install a ventilation vent. Because modern houses or old house has a airconditioner installed if they wanted to. Maybe the rent is too high or for the same price you could get a bigger appartement in a standard building.

[@WakeUpSmellTheCoffee]

When there’s no actual vent hoods, homes/apartments usually have those useless microwave range hoods. Makes the house smokey and sets off alarms when cooking any high-smoke-point food; which is 50% of stir fry -_-“. It’s up to the apartments to install real vent hoods, but it’s expensive.

looks cool, but the reality isn’t. the houses are packed too close together and raises a big concern for privacy

[@cloudnine9423]

I don’t think it is much different than apartment or condo in modern buildings. Think about it, they are closely packed too; your neighbors and you are only separated by one thin wall.

[@fandomcomic]

This might be better really. I can hear my neighbors dogs like they are next to me. And i can also hear them arguing very clearly. But of courseni dont knownhow thick the walls are in those houses either

It could be parking lots, maintenance areas, elevators, swimming pool, library, gym, or whatever, you've got the idea. In general I like the design. Different floors will have different square feet apartments and the top is always the best! It could be "mansarde", couple floors connected as one beautiful penthouse.
