100 WINDOWS is a residence for two generations and three households — a parent couple and the families of their two sons — sharing a single building. The site lies along a river in the suburbs of Hanoi, in an area that was once farmland and is now becoming a small town where housing plots and rental factories intermingle.

Comparing the current situation with the need to renovate as a design office space, we need to find a solution to connect the entire space in the face of great challenges of the division and l... More
