The folk houses in old Kunming are called "one envelope" style, which is a bit like quadrangles. You should know the details of the building.
Yunnan is famous for its ethnic architecture, such as the bamboo building of the Dai nationality and the diaojiao building of the Zhuang nationality, the mushroom house of the Hani nationality, the earthen palm house of the Yi nationality, the Tibetan (I don't remember the name of the house, but it's different from Tibet) and the three-square-one-wall form of the Bai folk house. I'm not professional in the specific function, so it's hard to describe it. If you like which one, you might as well know more about it.
