háromklínes

háromklínes refers to a Hungarian architectural term describing a house with three distinct rooms or sections, often arranged linearly. This layout was common in traditional Hungarian peasant homes and smaller dwellings. The term literally translates to "three-roomed" in English.

Typically, a háromklínes house would consist of a central living space, a kitchen, and a bedroom or storage area. The rooms would often be accessed directly from the outside or from a central hallway. This simple and functional design allowed for efficient use of space and materials, making it a practical choice for many families.

The specific arrangement and size of the three rooms could vary depending on regional customs, available resources, and the needs of the inhabitants. While the term itself denotes the number of rooms, the overall style and construction methods would align with the prevailing architectural trends of the era and location. The háromklínes layout contributed to the characteristic appearance of rural Hungarian settlements for centuries.
