越南胡志明市高密度住宅区内的一个40年历史的家庭住宅改造项目。该建筑最初建于20世纪80年代，经历了几次装修和扩建。到现在为止，由于家庭发展成为三代同堂的家庭–由七人组成。需要创造一个符合当前家庭生活的空间。

A 40-year-old family home renovation project in a high-density residential area, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. The building was first built in the 1980s and has undergone several renovations and expansions. Up to now, due to the development of the family into a family of three generations – consisting of seven people. The need to create a space that meets the current life of the family.

希望创造一个安静和亲密的空间，适合当地的情况–湿热的热带气候，确保在拥挤的背景下，家庭休息和活动的舒适和隐私。基于对现有结构的彻底研究，在改造过程中可以拆除的部件和必须保留的部件。然而，有一些结构部分在维修过程中不拆除是无法保证的。因此，建筑师决定提出一个计划，允许对不确定的部件在现场进行即兴设计和定制施工。

Desire to create a quiet and intimate space, suitable for the local area – hot and humid tropical climate, ensuring comfort and privacy for family rest and activities in a crowded context. Based on a thorough study of the existing structure, the components that can be removed and the components that must be retained during the renovation process. However, there are some structural parts that cannot be secured without dismantling during repair. So the architect decided to come up with a plan that allows for improvised design and custom construction of components that are uncertain to be on site.

新的结构方案在可用空间之间建立了连续的联系，内部与外部的联系，人与自然的联系，避免了人与自然被建筑完全隔开的事实，但仍然保证了隐私。

The new structural solution creates a continuous connection between usable spaces, the connection between the inside and the outside, the connection between people and nature, avoiding the fact that people are completely separated from nature by building, but still ensure privacy.

家庭生活空间和厨房位于房子的中心位置，同时用旧建筑可以创造出最大体积的空间。因为那是家庭中每个人花费最多时间使用的空间，从家庭生活空间出发，人们可以与所有其他空间联系起来，使家庭成员之间建立密切联系。

The family living space and the kitchen are located in the heart of the house, and at the same time with the largest volume of space can be created with the old-construction. Because that is the space where everyone in the family spends most of the time to use, from the family living space, people can connect with all other spaces, make a close connection between family members.

仆人空间在旧结构的基础上依偎在一边，确保家庭成员的需求。避免影响主要空间。以克服旧结构在通风和自然采光方面的局限性为标准，新结构充分利用了整个建筑的自然采光和通风，使运行过程中的能耗降到最低。

The servant spaces are nestled to one side based on the old structure, ensuring the needs of family members. Avoid affecting the main spaces. With the criterion of overcoming the limitations of ventilation and natural lighting of the old structure, the new structure makes the most of natural lighting and ventilation for the whole building, minimizing energy use in the operation process.

所有的房间都在两端安排了通风窗–确保从房子的前部到后部通过房间的通风。基于旧的结构体系，建筑师建议打开3个中庭的位置，以确保最佳的垂直通风，同时在房子前面创造一个缓冲空间，与树木协调，防止热辐射直接进入建筑。

All rooms are arranged with ventilation windows at both ends – ensuring ventilation through the room from front to back of the house. Based on the old structural system, the architect proposes to open 3 atrium positions to ensure the best vertical ventilation, along with creating a buffer space in front of the house, in coordination with trees to prevent heat radiation directly into the building.

此外，在底层安排水面元素是为了平衡湿度，并创造一个差压，以便更有效地通风。由红色水磨石楼梯（底层）发展而来的房子的红色在维修过程中被完整地保留下来，同时，在设计中重新使用家庭的旧家具将有助于唤起每个人心中与 “家 “有关的记忆。

In addition, the arrangement of the water surface element on the ground floor is to balance the humidity and create a difference pressure for more effective ventilation. The red color of the house developed from the red-terrazzo stairs (ground floor) is kept intact during the repair process, and at the same time, the reuse of the family’s old furniture in the design will help recall the memories associated with the “home” in each person.
