a21studio architects made this house in Ho Chi Minh City betting on a house with small individual rooms for the seven family members who live there, creating covered outdoor spaces where there is access to the different private rooms.
Description of the project by a21studĩo
Saigon has altered beyond recognition, for us, it is hard to call a development, it is, actually, a sequence of destructions: a destruction of culture, architecture values… and especially, our beautiful memories of Saigon.
Saigon house, is a space dedicated to the old Saigon-Gia Dinh, typically “Van Duong” Palace, an architecture masterpiece of a Saigonese, Vuong Hong Sen; however, it has been undermined by human stupidity.
Saigon house, moreover, is our love to Saigon’s alleys, which are romantic with its rain and sunshine.
