Vo Trong Nghia Architects wraps Bat Trang House in perforated ceramic brick facade
26/03/2021
Vo Trong Nghia Architects has designed a layered home encased in a perforated ceramic wall with a series of elevated gardens that function as a natural cooling system.
Located in the pottery village of Bat Trang in Vietnam, Vo Trong Nghia Architects (VTN Architects) designed the five-storey Bat Trang House to represent the pottery and ceramic heritage of the town.
The house was built for a seven-person family that wanted a home that was intertwined with nature, while also functioning as a ceramics shop.
"The brief of the project was to design a home for a seven-member family and a place for relative get-togethers," Vo Trong Nghia Architects told Dezeen.
"Besides its residential uses, Bat Trang House also functions as a shop, trading the traditional ceramic products of the pottery town."
