one window on the south wall?

or are we talking about building a house over the north pole so all windows will face south.

[Gizmokid2005]

An architect was asked to design a square house with the window in each wall having a southern exposure. How could this be done?

ANSWER (Congrats Mathster (possibly acoustikarl too)): Build the house on the North Pole

NEXT RIDDLE:

I always sit in the same pew at church - the third from the front and the seventh from the back, on the right hand side. Each pew seats 5 persons on each side of the center aisle. What is the total capacity of the church?

Seeing as there are 9 rows the capacity is 90 people.

Had to lengthen my answer since it wouldn't allow a 2 character post.
