Nestled amid an established row of houses in a rural Vietnam community, a brick structure called Nang House by Trung Tran Studio creates an airy, earthy dwelling for a three-generation household. Encompassing mature trees into the design, including notches in rooflines to accommodate the trunks, a natural canopy spills over a courtyard garden where indoor and outdoor spaces converge.

The interior spaces embrace high wooden ceilings, irregular angles, and curved details that highlight the angularity and modularity of the building material. Through contemporary forms, a timeless building block transforms into a warm, welcoming home. (via archdaily)
