Ha Tinh Province's Terrace House gets international attention
Archdaily featured the three-story home in the central province of Ha Tinh for its unique design.
 |
| The terraced home combines a mix of architecture and agriculture. |
 |
| Covering roughly 160 square meters, the house features a discreet exterior design to ensure the privacy of the owner. |
 |
| From the outside, the three-story house looks like a seamless block. |
 |
| The architect spared a third of the family lot for a kind of playground that seperates the house from the noise of the street. |
 |
| The broad entrance provides plenty of natural sunlight. |
 |
| The slope of the terraces leaves the house wide open to sight angles. |
 |
| The house maximizes minimalist design; white is the dominant color. |
 |
| The owner grows both vegetables and ornamental plants in terraced planters outfitted with irrigation systems. |
 |
| Terrace house provides urban residents a chance to get closer to nature by giving them first-hand experience in planting and harvesting. |
 |
| The house was designed by two architects, Hoang Thanh Ha and Tran Ngoc Phuong -- the latter of whom just won second prize at this year's 2A Asia Architecture Awards. |
