Solution

why are houses shape as they are ?

Engineers design houses to shelter people from specific environmental conditions. Their objective is to help keep people comfortable in all weather and seasons, so they are safe and protected from windy, rainy, snowy, wet, dry, cold and/or hot weather. To design homes that are appropriate for the local climate, engineers must fully understand the unique characteristics of the climate, as well as the availability and suitability of the building materials and resources

what shapes are tepees, hogans, igloos,and yurts?

A tipiis a conical tent, traditionally made of animal skins upon wooden poles. A tipi is distinguished from other conical tents by the smoke flaps at the top of the structure. Historically, the tipi was designed and largely used by Indigenous people of the Plains in the Great Plains and Canadian Prairies of North America. Tipi lodges are still in use by these peoples, though now primarily for ceremonial purposes.

A hogan is the primary, traditional dwelling of the Navajo people. Other traditional structures include the summer shelter, the underground home, and the sweat house. A hogan can be round, cone-shaped, multi-sided, or square; with or without internal posts; timber or stone walls and packed with earth in varying amounts or a bark roof for a summer house, with the door facing east to welcome the rising sun for good wealth and fortune.

An igloo also known as a snow house or snow hut, is a type of shelter built of snow, typically built when the snow can be easily compacted.

A traditional yurt (from the Turkic languages) or ger (Mongolian) is a portable, round tent covered with skins or felt and used as a dwelling by nomads in thesteppes of Central Asia. The structure comprises an angled assembly or latticeworkof pieces of wood or bamboo for walls, a door frame, ribs (poles, rafters), and awheel (crown, compression ring) possibly steam-bent. The roof structure is often self-supporting, but large yurts may have interior posts supporting the crown. The top of the wall of self-supporting yurts is prevented from spreading by means of atension band which opposes the force of the roof ribs. Modern yurts may be permanently built on a wooden platform; they may use modern materials such as steam-bent wooden framing or metal framing, canvas or tarpaulin, Plexiglas dome, wire rope, or radiant insulation

what shapes are houses in western contries?

There are many shapes of houses in western contries, it all depends on the region of house.

for example

in ireland

In Dublin, most homes are terraced houses or converted apartments. There aren\'t all that many detached homes, relatively speaking. And apartment buildings as such are fairly rare - most are old converted houses. Dublin, as an example, is a very low density city. There are no skyscrapers, or anything like them, there. Most buildings are 5 or 6 stories high maximum.

But in rural Ireland, most are detached, although there are plenty of terraced houses in smaller towns and villages too. There are a few thatched roofs around, but not that many nowadays.

where as in algeria

Algerian houses and gardens are surrounded by high walls for privacy. Inside, most homes have a central, open area or patio surrounded by the rooms of the house. Homes have a receiving room, kitchen, bathroom, bedrooms, and, if the family is wealthy, a second patio. The outside of the house is usually whitewashed brick or stone.

Algeria has a severe housing shortage. It is common for more than one family to live together in the same house.

so it all depends on the region of construction
