The houses in the traditional Indian village are characterized by simplicity and practicality. The houses are traditionally made of natural materials such as mud, clay, bricks, stones, bamboos, and wood, which provide cooling in the summer season and warmth in the winter season. Among the traditional designs of houses in the village is the tiled roof house, which protects the house from heavy rain and sun. Another type of house in the village is the courtyard-type house, which provides ventilation and natural light inside the house.

Some houses in the village have a veranda at the front of the house where the villagers sit and relax with their family members and welcome visitors. Some houses in the village are also made of thatched roofs due to their low cost and simplicity of construction. The houses in the South Indian village are characterized by long halls and spaces, whereas the houses in the North Indian village are characterized by closed spaces. The houses are still popular due to their simplicity and practicality, and people prefer to live in these houses even today.
