"The house is a three-generation family residence located in the rural landscape of Long An, Vietnam."
"Positioned along a busy national highway, the site presented two significant challenges: traffic noise and fine dust from constant vehicle flow."
"The design response was to create a layered system of green buffers that both protect the living environment and evoke the spirit of the traditional Southern Vietnamese garden house."
The house accommodates three generations within a rural Long An setting adjacent to a busy national highway. The site faces persistent traffic noise and fine dust from constant vehicle flow. The design establishes a layered system of green buffers that filter particulates, attenuate sound, and create spatial separation from the roadway. The vegetated layers form transitional outdoor rooms, enhance privacy, moderate microclimate through shading and evapotranspiration, and reconnect the household to the spatial logic and atmosphere of the traditional Southern Vietnamese garden house. The strategy prioritizes occupant health, comfort, and cultural landscape continuity.
