rumah Turi was originally a traditional family home located in kampung Turisari in central Solo. Just like typical village houses, this house was comprised of:
- A main building called joglo (semi public area) and a latar (yard for children playing and people interacting with others)

- A master bedroom(dalem) and children’s bedroom (gandhok)
- An open bathing area (senthong) and paringgitan, which no longer exist in the revamped construction
