Architecture
Selected architecture projects across education, compact housing, detached houses, and public buildings.
01
The School for Ethnic Children in Vietnam Highland
Graduation thesis exploring green architecture, local materials, and lower-cost school construction for remote highland communities.
The main ideas are green architecture, using local materials to save cost and make it easier to build more schools for children in remote areas.
02
Townhouses
Compact residential studies for Vietnamese city lots, focused on narrow widths, limited floor area, and practical daily living.
In crowded cities in Vietnam, many people own terrace houses with very humble spaces. I spent years after graduation working on this housing type and learned how to design with limited areas, where each house may be only 3 to 6 meters wide.
The Small House
This house is about 90 square meters, 6 meters wide, and designed with 2 bedrooms.
The Narrow House
This study explores layout options for a 5-meter-wide house with 3 bedrooms.
03
Detached Houses
Detached house designs in Tay Ninh, Vietnam, including villa and small-house studies shaped by local domestic rituals.
In traditional Vietnamese culture, many families keep an altar room for remembering ancestors. It is often located on the front side of the house or on an upper floor as a gesture of respect.
These houses were designed in Tay Ninh, Vietnam.
04
Public Buildings
Office, restaurant, and recreation building studies for countryside and public-use contexts.
The office is located in the countryside on a factory site.
The restaurant uses an open-space approach.
