I think that looks really interesting, my only thought about no staircases is for elders and little children. I would say Osha should be called :P
Stairs are for losers anyway, we don't need them . SnipeHunter I loved them and I cannot wait to see more.
I absolutely love how practical everything has been so far, from the Brudvir using earth insulation techniques, to the Janoan smoker concept. You can tell these are made with real intent and thought and it makes the wait for next week seem to take forever :P
PS. I like the inspector gadget reference at the end :D
I love that it is so different to both Kypiq and Neran! Really unique elements in there :)
Just in case you guys missed them, raised storehouses are a great way to confound rats. Missing from the illustration is the ladder you lean against the front when you want to get something!

Pātaka look like they would fit perfectly with the Janoan concept!
They look great! I love the variety and ideas some give that I hadn't considered, like the stove with dual usage.
These are clearly not JDA (Janoan with Disabilities Act) compliant! And what if you're having non-Janoan guests for dinner?

Any Janoa found to be disabled will be used as bait in the hunt, and non-Janoan guests will BE the dinner.
problems solved.
I like it, Definitely not what I was expecting from the Janoan Biome being a tropical rainforest, I anticipated the rainforest being a bigger factor in the architecture, for instance the buildings being built around the bases of trees or indeed even in the tree canopy's like ewok housing or that of the lost treehouse tribe,
The stable structure looks like a kinda man made mud house with a large communal room above ! Maybe a religious gathering building or even a village meeting room of sorts, or a social gathering point to share takes of the longest night hunts, and show of trophies,
This brings me to the upper right image, a trio of dwellings, and I now speculate, could this be a family home ? Or that of an elder of tribe ? Because it certainly doesn't look like you could fit a family in the 2 story stove dwelling, upper center image, but then I wonder is the trio of rooms a store house ? Or is the structure above the stable block a large village grain & produce store ? My god the possibilities are endless, please tell us more about these individual structures,
I like the use of lashings to tie the stilt structures as opposed to iron, ( nails ) but would like to see better interlocking use of the timbers like a Tetris style locking of woods, similar to a tongue and groove style, but hey that could already be a concept, just one we don't see yet, wink wink.
Angled ladders, hybrid ladders, a good concept, how about some lashing ropes !! For the teenager and physically fit with an abundance of energy to shiny up and around ? Or notches protruding from the structures for grips and footholds ?
All in all, as a prospective Janoan myself, it gets a thumbs up from me, but as per, we want more, we need more, feed us your excellence Snipehunter, Great job.
Many hands make light work.

And the Janoan are not a social culture, you'd be hard pushed to find another man of kin that would want to go round a janoan's for dinner, let alone treck through the tropical rainforest to get there, lol.
