They wanted the state to have representation as well as the people. Therefore the Senate is to represent the states, and the House of Representatives to represent districts of people.
Also, to avoid the concentration of power.
House of representatives
It was modeled after "British Parliament".
The Founding Fathers regularly met in a variety of venues including pubs and taverns. However, for the Constitutional Convention, they met in the Pennsylvania State House in Philadelphia which has been preserved and is now known more commonly as Independence Hall.
A two house legislature is not called a unilateral legislature, it is called a bicameral legislature.

The Founding Fathers did not envision a professional political system and wanted the People's House to be free to regularly change its Representatives.
The founding fathers thought search warrants were important because King George's men could enter a house and conduct a search at will and States didn't want the new Federal Government to be allowed to do it without approval of a judge.
The House of Burgesses Gave the founding fathers an example of what the legislature should look like, without it we would probably have a unimercal (one bodied) legislature, like britian's parliment. -Side Note, the House of Burgesses was a bimercal legislature, or made of two bodies, like the one we have today, the New Jersey and Virginia plans are what framed the two bodies representative count and distribution.
A two house legislature is not called a unilateral legislature, it is called a bicameral legislature.
The Great Compromise, aka the Connecticut Compromise was when the large and small states agreed to form a bicameral legislature (legislature with two houses), which resulted in the formation of the US Senate and House.
