Designed by 23o5 studio in Vietnam and named " Pink House ", this home has light structures as it adopts a simple volume. In the project, what draws the most attention is the upper part, which is open in a circular shape, leaving the airy environment with a surprising highlight. The purpose of the circular structure is to connect the house to the sky and bring greater harmony with nature . The environment as a whole seeks an earthy-toned palette with a unique coating, throughout the space, of wash stone (granite) inside and on the outside, blurring the boundaries and allowing a seamless transition between them.
To bring nature into the project, plants were incorporated into the ceiling. For the studio responsible for the project, the goal was to show the immensity of nature in contrast to human beings. The green in this scenario interposes the space as if it were invading the environment.

"Architecture has a special material relationship with human life, as a covering and foundation for the life that develops around it," the studio said. Functionality was also a strong aspect that the architects wanted to bring, as well as privacy and tranquility. The natural landscape combined with earthy tones has the power to bring this harmony into the home, in addition to the mix of warm and soft colors. contributed to not making the project boring.
