The house by VACO Design is located in Thao Dien Ward, District 2.

The house requires many different functions, arranged within a limited footprint of 12.5m x 14.5m. Basic living areas including living, sleeping rooms were put to the back of the site whereas other utilities such as kitchen, garage, swimming pool, study were placed to the front and connected through open spaces. 

With this arrangement, the utility spaces receive maximum lighting and ventilation, while the living areas archive higher level of silence and privacy with enough view, light and air.

By elevating the swimming pool, the ground floor was opened for more flexible functions.

Moreover, the pool also helps to cool down open courtyard.
