Saarimaa & Pelsmakers, 2020;Pelsmakers ym., 2021), oikeanpuoleiset (B) taas tutkija-arkkitehdin tuottamia vaihtoehtoisia ratkaisuja. Oikeanpuoleisissa (B) asuntopohjissa on enemmän sisä-ja ulkotilan välisiä yhteyksiä, ja ne joustavat erilaisiin huone määriin sekä tilojen välisiin yhteyksiin purkamalla tai rakentamalla ei-kantavia väliseiniä.…”
