This house was designed for a couple and their 2 little kids, located in Thanh My Loi new urban area in Ho Chi Minh city, Vietnam.
Together we dicussed and tried many solutions with an intent hope that we could create a living space that turns toward to not only conecting members of family to each others, but also harmonizing with the natural surroundings.
The house, which contains many functions, requires to be flexibly designed. The space is carefully considered to create the inside yard, like “a heart”, that separates function areas by natural factors. Beside that, bringing the sun and the rain into house is so interesting. It really aspired people, gave them effort to work, to play music, to cook, to meet friends and party together.
With the requirements to have a house with a slopping roof coverd by traditional tiles, we designed the house to show its dynamics and youth inside. The whole house is proposed as a sculpture.
