Located in the urban area of Hai Duong city, Vietnam, this residence named ‘Kai House’ is designed by its owner, who is also an architect. Covering an area of 72 square meters, the house has two frontages at the fork of the road, and the frontage and the land was the prime concern for the architect. The use of brick wall tiles and wood gives an aesthetic appeal to the façade, making the building a centre of attraction in the area. SURFACES REPORTER (SR) presents below the details of the project:

With three floors, the house is a cosy place containing full space for relaxation, open space and welcoming.
The architect gave utmost importance to the open space in the design process. To optimize the space entirely, he brought garden, green trees into the living space.
While the built-on area of the land is 72 m2, the first floor contains only 46 m2 as the remaining area includes the garden.
Distinct Façade
The unique façade of the house catches the attention of everyone as it is different from the other buildings nearby.
The house depicts the personality and individuality of its inhabitants. The architect incorporated trees into the home as a cooling and greening solution.
Large Garden
