Upon entry of the house, you are welcomed by this foyer that has a wooden main door with a thin glass panel. The door is contrasted by the bright walls and gray concrete floor.

The wall on the side of the foyer has a large arched window with a view of the kitchen in the distance.

On the other side of this large window is a console cabinet that stands out against the red brick wall.

This side also has a medium-sized tree leading to a curved staircase that seems to float with its wooden steps.

This is another view of the staircase showing its thin railings and the kitchen a few steps away.

This closer look at the kitchen showcases the U-shaped peninsula with an attached wooden table at the edge paired with a wooden bench and a couple of chairs.

This view of the kitchen shows that the attached wooden table is suspended from the ceiling with a couple of thin columns and that it is topped with a wooden lighting fixture.

This is a view of the kitchen from the vantage of the stairs showing that the wooden attached table matches with the cabinetry and the frame of the large arched window.

The sink area of the kitchen is adorned with a large potted plant and a few steps from the kitchen is the living room.

7×7 House was inspired and created from the idea of a tropical space as it is located in Danang, a central coastal city of Vietnam where the climate is quite severe in the way it varies significantly between the sunny season and the rainy one. This city is also influenced by a lot of tropical storms every year. Besides, the local people as well as their lifestyle is affected by their main religion, known as Buddhism. Thus, they lead an open and friendly life.

This house, of which the architect himself got the inspiration from humble zen space and from some small country houses in the central coastal countryside of Vietnam, is built for a single woman. It is requested that this house should be a space that can create a linking space filled with friendliness, closeness, and flexibility.

The problem of climate has been considered in the first place. As the site area is extremely small together with the three- hidden sides of the house, the plan is divided into two lightwells which allows breeze and light to get to all the corners of the house.

Green trees cannot be omitted as they play an important role in highlighting the lightwell holes, which helps create a relaxing and comfortable feeling in such a small-spaced house. All the green trees in the house can help link the two floors so all the members of the family are able to see and talk to each other through this open and close space.

The architect has designed the first floor with a large sharing space where a living room, a cooking counter, a dining table are found, which restrict the lobby and extra space with the maximum amount.

In a word, both the architect and the owner of the house wish to build an effective, energy-saving, and friendly house, which will take advantage of the natural features of the region. We call it “Architecture makes happiness.”
