In what ways is the Swahili house designed around public function? Address plan, layout, architecture, decoration, ritual objects, and functions in your answer. Also explain and address the principle of structural depth in your response. Note: focus on one of the Swahili houses the author discusses, for example the Songo Mnara palace or House 44. You will need to summarize the main points the author makes about the public versus private areas of the Swahili building you choose to write about. This is not a visual analysis, but more of a spatial one.
Provide an image of the main architectural example you are discussing.
