The problem set for Naw Studio this time is to create a home for a family in which the homeowner has a great love and many karmas associated with modern Japanese architecture throughout their youth journey. And from the initial concept sketches in that spirit, the Lantern was born.Save this picture!In the midst of the bustling new urban area of Hoa Xuan, The Lantern is designed to create a feeling of peace, in the form of modern architecture. With a basic square area of 100m2, facing East and West with many impacts of the typical climate of the Central region, the house must optimize space, but still have to create a connection between nature and people, and at the same time perfectly meet the living needs of a family of 4. The east facade of the house is a simple but meaningful combination of shapes. As a game of materials, the setbacks and hollow solid walls are arranged purposefully, helping to regulate light and take advantage of natural ventilation. Most importantly, the effect of catching the early sunlight on the materials will be extremely eye-catching.Save this picture!Save this picture!Save this picture!The space inside the house does not have a traditional living room, instead, the kitchen and backyard play the central role of connection, so the whole family gathers together. The ground floor opens to a spacious space with an adjacent kitchen, directly connected to the backyard - the heart and lungs of the house, becoming the place where life and nature intersect, keeping the space always airy and fresh. The upper floors are designed as open spaces, helping to increase the connection between floors and create a more spacious visual effect. The system of doors and openings is arranged appropriately along with the backyard to circulate natural air, perfectly regulating the microclimate inside the house.Save this picture!Save this picture!Save this picture!Save this picture!Overall, the house is a harmonious combination of modern Japanese architectural style and Vietnamese climatic conditions.
