Live in the Urban Blank – This is a private house in Vung Tau, a provincial city in southern Vietnam. The site is a typical tube house type, with both sides and the rear of the house closed off from the neighboring houses, and no ventilation or lighting can be expected from the side openings. The front facade faces west, subjecting it to intense tropical sunlight in the afternoon, which can create an uncomfortable living environment. Despite these challenges, Vietnamese homeowners desire a home that feels open and lush with greenery.
