FAMILY VALUES

HCMC University of Technology and Education

Project idea

From the spirit of Northern Vietnamese which values family reunion and enduring kinship, the project is shaped in the Indochine style as a peaceful realm of memory within the urban fabric.

Inspired by the peach blossoms of Nam Định, sunlight, and the rhythm of tidal waves, the space carries a quiet, nostalgic yet refined beauty rooted in Eastern aesthetics. The ritual of tea appreciation and a sense of stillness come together, forming a gentle home that listens, embraces, and preserves love.

Project description

The project is designed to emphasize the intimate values of family and the idea of a peaceful refuge after dedicating time and energy to the outside world and work.

“Home is where one returns to find happiness.”

Technical information

The project primarily uses imported American wood, along with traditional Vietnamese breeze blocks and patterned cement tiles. Together, these materials clearly express a distinctive Eastern aesthetic rooted in Vietnamese cultural identity.
