In the context of Saigon's urban environment, this idea is a proposal for the construction of houses fitted to the typical long and thin architectural style. Due to the compounding impacts of economic growth and urban development, Saigon's population density and urbanization are both rising at a faster rate every year. As a result, many people want to live in a place that is near to nature and feels peaceful and rejuvenating, where they can enjoy the sun's rays and the caress of the wind.
The primary objective of the house's design remains centered on its adaptation to the prevailing hot and humid tropical climate in the locality. This adaptation aims to provide effective ventilation and ample natural lighting within the structure, therefore creating a comfortable interior atmosphere that promotes a sense of well-being. The transformations in the natural world. This concept is the rationale for the establishment of rear verandas, which create a shaded area on the exterior of the structure. This design feature aids in mitigating the adverse effects of sunshine and intense solar radiation on the interior areas, particularly during the summer season in Saigon.
We intentionally plan the interior of the house with open and interconnected functional areas, creating gaps that enhance the aesthetic appeal and spatial perception. The ingress of natural light into the rooms is facilitated by the presence of apertures located on the two facades of the dwelling, as well as a vertical aperture. Furthermore, the dwelling will benefit from consistent airflow throughout the year, as cool breezes permeate the inside from many angles, meandering through the various areas before dissipating via the roof and open doors situated on the facade.
