Located in a densely populated area in Singapore, the house has a public walkway right next to it. Behind is a high-rise building under construction. Therefore, privacy issues become a major concern of homeowners. Accordingly, the architect prioritizes discreet walls on the outside of the facade. Plain brick walls in neutral tones help to reduce the rough, heavy feel of an introverted building. The window ensures ventilation for the space but has a compact design and is glued with one-way anti-seeing glass paper. The land is divided into two parts corresponding to the building and connected by a green garden in the middle. Garden design allows the house to have the necessary breathing space to limit the situation of long and narrow pipes. Contrary to the somewhat discreet facade, the space inside the house is towards open architecture and prioritizes connection. In addition to the garden space between the two buildings, the house has an additional opening that is a skylight to help get natural light. Homeowners feel full natural sunlight right in the house. The living room and kitchen are located in the front block. The living room and kitchen are located in the front block. Wooden furniture gives a cozy feeling.

The work was built in Thai Nguyen province by the architects of AD + studio. The concrete frame system of the two main building blocks is retained, reinforced by trusses because the roof structure steel truss is inspired by the surrounding context, creating a space that exceeds the span. This solution both frees the view of the area below to the garden, while increasing the used area above, and at the same time creating a harmonious “stack of roof” building in the whole. Standing in front of the house, through the glass brick wall between the green pavement and the front garden, the inner and outer division seems to be only approximate. The old building blocks a portion of the area for the garden and vegetation as adding a buffer between the bustling highway outside and the quiet living space inside. Narrow corridors connect the common space in front and the private space of the homeowner in the back. From each point in the house, you can see many different spaces. The living space and the green trees of the garden blend together, creating an airy atmosphere. In the house, the group of architects opens up a sky well to catch the light. Besides ventilation, the house is also full of comfort and modernity in daily life. The spiral staircase and the large spaces create a strong visual impression in the house. The materials and design styles are a bit nostalgic but still ensure high applicability. Works as a background of harmony between context, nature and people.

Architect NGHIA-ARCHITECT said that the biggest difficulty facing the architect is to ensure that the renovation is in accordance with the planning regulations and exterior requirements applied in urban areas. At the same time, meeting customers’ needs in changing the original structure to become a more cohesive space for the family. The renovation must be carefully considered and studied to create a unique facade. The outer sun shading layer helps the house to be more introverted and discreet According to the original plan the house had three basic problems that needed to be addressed. Firstly, the old status quo is in a typical form and reveals the inadequacies because it cannot exploit the open space element – a characteristic of garden villas. The architect designed the use of vertical wooden bars as a wind door covering the facade to increase the unique and sophisticated look. The louvre (sunshade) on the façade gives a unique look, although not too fussy but still enough to break the way for the house. This louvre layer contributes to reducing the sunlight that is radiated directly into the windows Second, what is needed to create an open house is to combine the living space with many trees. A corner of the garden overlooking the water with many trees. Family dining area. Third, the effective design layout for the second floor revolves around the idea of ​​bringing more interaction between family members while ensuring essential privacy. Instead of a doorless wardrobe inside the main bedroom, the architect decided to move it outside to connect the bedroom space of parents and children. In addition, the architect decided to invest in a separate play space for the children. A small steel staircase can be reached from the bedroom. The room layout helps to stimulate the dynamism and imagination of young children. The architect designed the second floor around the idea to closely link family members. Simple and modern interior. Another view of the living room has a relaxing sitting corner. The first floor and the second floor are connected by floor clearance. Each space of the house opens up a green space outside through sliding glass doors. Each bedroom space is calculated to have maximum access to the elements of ventilation and natural light. One of the strengths of this project is that each room opens up a green space. The master bedroom has full access to sunlight and wind.
