As urban spaces in Vietnam continue to grow, designing functional and comfortable homes within limited plots has become an architectural challenge. SkyGarden Townhouse, a residence in Nha Trang City, takes on this challenge by blending nature with modern living.
The Flow of Time House is a townhouse designed by MW Archstudio, situated in Hue, Vietnam. The residence occupies a compact 5m x 20m plot, a standard layout in Vietnamese housing subdivisions. Designed for a young couple and their two daughters, the house embraces both modern functionality and cultural heritage while addressing the challenges posed by its south-facing orientation, which exposes it to intense sunlight and high temperatures.
Dien Khanh house tries to retain the traditional familiarity that is gradually fading away of rural houses, in order to create a fresh living environment, close to nature and the surrounding environment, but also satisfy modern life and contemporary social development.
The Hue house project is in a new residential area in Bao Loc city. The client is a family of five, parents and four children. The plot of land size is 5x30m, which is a very typical site for a Vietnamese urban tube house.
The Stepping Park house is one of the latest projects in a housing series called “House for Trees”. The shortage of green space in Vietnam is causing environmental problems such as urban flooding, overheating and air pollution.
Vietnam has an abundance of nature and townscapes that are registered as World Heritage Sites. Economic growth due to the increase in tourism has raised the standard of living but has also given way to reckless development by clearing away nature.
The ” House for a Daughter ” is divided into two zones. Reserved for the daughter, the back of the house consists of a connected bedroom and study that occupies two floors, while the front part of the house comprises bedrooms for her parents and brother.
Located west of Ho Chi Minh city on a 5m x 15m land, the Pattern House by MM++ Architects is an example of the standard south east Asian housing type called “shop-house” or “tube house”.
