Bread House by AZ85 Studio

A small-sized house (5x18 m) serves as a living space for four generations of a family in the bustling city center of Fan Rang. It is easy to distinguish Bread House's unique architecture among traditional houses, as it features an unusual metal panel facade decorated with green trees and flowers.

Bread House is a four-story townhouse featuring a shared living area connected to a small courtyard and garage on the first floor. The second and third floors house four bedrooms, while the fourth floor consists of two terraces—front and back—with a bedroom, mini-kitchen, and laundry room. For the grandparents' bedroom especially, architects used the rear space to create a cozy area with a wooden terrace, preserving good air circulation. Every square foot was carefully utilized to meet all requirements, and lighting has been thoughtfully designed with various types of light depending on the specific function. The project also presents a flexible blend of living and leisure spaces, maximizing natural light entering each room to minimize the feeling of stuffiness or cramped space.

Additionally, architects integrated green zones and interiors to transform the house into a mini-resort, creating comfort and relaxation for residents. One notable feature of Bread House is the iron lattice on its main facade.

Located on the western side, with Fan Rang's typical hot and sunny climate in mind, we used five layers of green trees on the facade, an iron lattice system, glass frames, and two layers of curtains. This element spans from the second floor to the roof, creating a green covering while maintaining the building's aesthetic.
