In our culture, building a house is very important in life. Building houses often follow feng shui principles that have existed for thousands of years. However, most people use feng shui blindly without grounding. Therefore, architects face a lot of difficulties in resolving the contradiction between feng shui and scientific design thinking.
In this project, the investor is a young family with three members. They desired to have a house with three bedrooms and plenty of garden and landscaping area. We agree that scientific grounds must be prioritized in the design process. The main goal of the house design still focuses on adapting to the current hot and humid tropical climate in the locality. This adaptation aims to provide efficient ventilation and abundant natural light, creating a comfortable interior atmosphere while retaining simplicity of care and operation. Helps minimize the adverse effects of the sun and intense solar radiation. Best serves the living and use process of the investor. Therefore, we found the design in a modern and minimalist style to be a perfect fit.
With a land area of only 216m2, we decided to limit the maximum building density to 40% in order to dedicate the remaining space to the garden. To achieve this, we positioned the house towards the front of the lot, creating a large garden space behind it. The placement of windows and doors was carefully calculated to ensure a steady flow of air throughout the year, allowing cool breezes to enter from multiple directions and carry away any unpleasant odors or mold. Additionally, constructing a basement for garages and storage is a great way to save space, but it can be challenging to harmoniously combine the basement and garden space.
By arranging the kitchen, dining, and living space on the ground floor and facing it towards the back garden, we aimed to create an open and connected space that is completely private. The entrance to the house on the façade is interspersed with a small garden, without any boundary between the house and the road, creating a sense of accessibility while still maintaining control and safety. This design approach differs from houses that apply feng shui principles.
On the first floor, we have a spacious bedroom with a Walk-in closet and a large bathroom. All the spaces are designed to have direct access to natural light and fresh air.
On the second floor, we have two bedrooms that share a small garden. The garden is easily accessible from the bedrooms through large glass doors. The roof is designed to maximize natural light and ventilation.
In every space, we design simply. There are not many details to ensure easy maintenance. In particular, we use bamboo - a very available and familiar material. We have used bamboo as our most important building material for hundreds of years. After processing, bamboo becomes very durable for making doors, indoor floors, balcony floors, outdoor floors as well as decorative panels.
