  A baked-brick villa in Da Nang built by a retired couple features vast swaths of open space. It is built on a 400 sq.m plot in a quiet neighborhood in the central city with a view of a lake and greenery. So architects designed an L-shaped building with open spaces so that the occupants could enjoy the views unimpeded. The geometric roof gives the villa a classy look. The latticed brick facade lets in light and wind. A closer look at the facade. The homeowners wanted to use local materials such as baked bricks, which were used as early as in the fourth century in Da Nang. The kitchen, and living and dining rooms are on the ground floor and interconnected. They are enclosed by latticed walls. The occupants can regulate the wind and light entering the house with glass windows. A corridor on the first floor. The construction materials were chosen for their sturdiness, climate resistance and looks and their ability to harmonize with the surroundings. Photos by Hiroyuki Oki Read:https:...
