Would experts would put light on one kanal residential house layout plan. Is it better to keep open four side of the house instead of three especially in view of the fact that lda allows to cover the fourth side. On the other hand dha have made it mandatory on its members to keep the four side open.
Covering the fourth side will provide additional space that can be used for inside rooms or so whereas keeping it open would provide extra ventilation and sunlight. Whether benefits of keeping the fourth side open overweight the benefits of covering it.
Better to cover fourth side if you hire good architect who manage ventilation of all rooms
a layout with 3 sides open is enough for complete ventilation of a house
It depends on site (plot) and design. There is not a thumb rule, for all sites, it varies site by site. Environmental drawings and site analysis will guide you, what to do.
