dual facades and central skylight illuminate dat tran's residence in western vietnam

dat tran architect introduces three-story residence in Vietnam

Dat Tran Architect reveals LA House, a three-story residence in Long An Province, Southern Vietnam. The house is positioned on a 4 x 18-meter plot between lush parks and clear lakes, creating a peaceful living environment that harmonizes with nature. With the advantage of two facades, the building maximizes natural light and airflow, ensuring the interior remains bright and airy. The facade features a tiled roof that reflects local cultural influences, while cement relief sculptures add an artistic touch to the house. The open-plan layout of the living room and kitchen connects spaces, while a central skylight introduces ample natural light and ventilation.

LA House draws from traditional Vietnamese architecture 

LA House combines traditional Southern Vietnamese architectural elements with contemporary convenience in its design by Dan Tran. The staircase, positioned along the wall, optimizes space and ensures ease of movement, contributing to the overall airiness of the interior. The bedrooms are designed with views of the surrounding green park, offering residents a direct connection to the natural landscape. This arrangement by the Vietnamese architect creates an ideal space for relaxation and incorporates the beauty of the outdoors into everyday living.
