The old house located on the rooftop of a villa in Bac Tu Liem district (Hanoi) makes many passersby curious because of its unique architecture, combining traditional features inside a modern building. so. This project is owned by Mr. Nguyen Van Vu and his wife, Quynh Lien. The total area of ​​a floor is 460 m2, the area of ​​the old church is 100 m2. Looking from afar on Lien Mac dike, the house stands out. The outside is covered with antique imitation refractory brick. Quynh Lien shared that in the past, the family owned an old church, and the neighbors had not built much, so the space was very open. But when the storey building continued to grow, the house was blocked and lost. With an age of more than 100 years, the family calculates that the old house will deteriorate, so it needs to be repaired for long-term use. In addition, the family has a 4-generation tradition of making sculpture, so they also want more space to display products. Therefore, Ms. Lien said this unique project was born. Quynh Lien said that it took her husband about 2 years to come up with the idea of ​​​​designing a house that combines classic and modern. In 1 year of construction (from February 2020), she and her husband had to edit a lot by themselves until they liked it. “We want the villa to be both a place to keep and preserve the old church and a place for our parents to stay close and familiar. Relatives feel very happy to know that my husband and I will keep them. I got the old house because this is the place that holds so many memories of people in the past,” Quynh Lien shared. Ms. Lien said that before putting it on the rooftop, the entire old church had to be demolished, brought to a wood workshop in Quoc Oai district for repair, and then returned to the roof of the villa. The traditional wooden house structure of the church is still preserved with wooden trusses, fish-scale tile roof and 3 compartments and 2 wings. The traditional layout is still maintained, with enough counters, mahogany furniture, sofa tables and chairs. The small Buddha altar is at the top, then the family altar, the altar to worship the gods. The hundred-year-old horizontal paintings and couplets are still preserved. The family added a few details in the design such as wooden floors, self-contained toilets, glass windows… to match the modern lifestyle. The roof, the owner uses traditional jackfruit wood to make the support. The new tile is custom-made according to the original prototype. At the rooftop campus, Ms. Lien’s family decorated more miniatures, aquariums, etc. with pure Vietnamese decoration. In addition, many products made by the Lien family, such as Buddha statues, musical couples, etc., are also displayed around the yard. Another highlight in the innovative structure of this building is that the courtyard brick foundation is not red brick but white brick. According to the owner, the house on high is easy to catch the sun, so the white tile will be reduced, which makes the floor cooler. At the same time, the decorations will stand out, not mixed in color. The steps entering the old house are also changed, looking new and modern. “I maintain and develop, not just rebuild like the ancient way, the landscape is more suitable for the current and more innovative lifestyle,” Lien explained. Around the old house, Ms. Lien planted trees such as apples, jackfruit, star fruit, guava, bougainvillea, vi… to make the space cooler. The overall design of the villa has 5 floors. In the photo is the space on the first floor to receive guests, the mezzanine floor as a room to hang pictures, the family’s sculpture museum. The 2nd floor is a gallery of sculpture products of the production company, the 3rd floor is the family room, the 4th floor is the old church and where grandparents live, displaying other works. Finally, the 5th floor is the gym and technical room. The 5th floor ceiling design space is like a park, both a place for children and grandchildren to play, and a place to gather to enjoy the family’s BBQ. The lighting system is installed around the house space. Thanks to the lighting system, the house stands out and sparkles more when it’s dark.

To keep your house cool in the Vietnamese climate, first of all, is the layout of the space, the location of light, reasonable wind, and ventilation thanks to open spaces. In addition, the selection of materials also helps to reduce some of the heat. Currently, there are materials on the market that can provide both sound and heat insulation well. Here are some suggestions of architect Bui The Long CTA | Creative Architects about materials that make your house cool year round. Use unburnt lightweight bricks You can use types such as block bricks, unburnt light bricks to help reduce environmental pollution. Solid brick walls, raw and un-painted brick walls also provide good insulation. Soil wall from mountainous ethnic people is now sought by many professional construction companies to apply in construction is also a worthwhile solution in the future. “Breathing brick wall” The use of “breathing brick wall” is also an option. “Breathing brick wall” includes a garden layer of 1.2 – 1.5 m combined with open brick wall, burnt brick built in the direction of continuous brick hole. From there, creating natural air inlets to help ventilate continuously 24/24 for the house. The less building layers of a wall surface, the quicker it heats heat, limiting heat retention, and heating indoor air. Spatial architecture with many layers of side corridor walls is also a method of limiting heat. Roofing tiles The roof is a part of the project that is subject to a considerable heat impact. Roofing with tiles or insulated corrugated iron will dissipate heat better than roofs made of concrete and tile due to the air space between the roof and the ceiling. For light-absorbing glass materials, in order to reduce heat, in addition to the way of insulating film, insulating glass is a good choice with no difference in price. Glass roofs or windows, doors should incorporate slots, ventilation bars to contribute to indoor air circulation. The glass wall material that has air insulation inside the brick is a material that is in common use. Wooden materials Solid wood materials limit heat gain, high inductance but relatively high cost, as well as longevity requirements, durability, so the use accounts for a low proportion of the common materials. The wooden houses have distinct beauty, cooler temperatures than concrete houses are many people love. Depending on the financial size of the homeowner can be considered to design. Using water surface or planting trees to cover walls or roofs, trees in the house is also a natural solution to help reduce heat and cool the house.
