M+TRO.studio weaves wind, light and greenery throughout TA house in vietnam

ta house in vietnam by m+tro.studio embraces nature

M+TRO.studio unveils the two-story wood and concrete TA House, interwoven with greenery and light in a residential area in Huong Thuy, Vietnam. Overflowing with wind, light, and plants, the home is infused with elements of nature and a sense of serenity. Throughout, the architects create a fluid sense of openness and establish a close relationship between the exterior and interior to embed inhabitants in nature. Large glass windows and sliding doors wrap around the home, plants intricately drape across the balcony and sway along the facade, and green areas enliven the earth-toned internal living spaces — together bringing the outdoors in.

Engulfing the home with nature, M+TRO.studio intricately weaves light, wind and lush greenery within and around TA House. The architects arrange various green areas around both the interior and exterior spaces to directly connect the indoor living and circulation spaces to the nature outside. The common spaces are planned in an interconnected program. Large sliding glass doors enclose the space, spanning the width of the exterior walls, and the height of the structure. The protective plant enclosure, combined with the overhanging concrete roof and wooden façade elements together help to protect the home from adverse impacts of nature.

At the edge of the boundary between the structure of TA House and its rear garden, the architects position a bedroom opening out onto the grassy area. Enveloped by an intimate enclosure of plants, the room nestles into a corner and maintains a sense of privacy. Separating the bedrooms from the outside are expansive sliding glass doors and adjustable fabric curtains which can be opened for enjoying the natural atmosphere. The house is structured with a flat roof system without beams, creating a feeling of lightness and elegance.
