This Vietnam House Has NO Living Room! | 2,800 Sq Ft Split-Level Family Home Design | 72MCT House
What if a house had no traditional living room and instead placed the dining area at its heart? Welcome to 72MCT House, a remarkable 2,800 sq ft (260 m²) split-level townhouse in Da Nang, Vietnam, designed by SBS House and led by architect Le Quang Trung.
Inspired by the traditional architecture of Hoi An, this modern Vietnamese home beautifully combines privacy, family connection, natural light, and climate-responsive design. The house features a distinctive louvered roof system, an indoor tree symbolizing family growth, skylights, natural ventilation pathways, and an open terrace that connects the family with nature.
✨ Key Architectural Features: • Hoi An-inspired roof design
• Split-level townhouse planning
• Central dining space under a skylight
• Indoor tree representing family bonding and growth
• Precast concrete louvre system for heat reduction
• Natural cross-ventilation and passive cooling strategies
• Raw concrete and textured paint finishes
• Minimalist and climate-responsive architecture
This project demonstrates how architecture can go beyond aesthetics and become a medium for family relationships, cultural identity, and emotional experiences.
