Text description provided by architect.

This project is a small real estate development located in Mui Ne, a seaside holiday destination in Vietnam’s south east coast.

The site has a trapezoidal shape 110 meters deep between the ocean and the road and 42 meters along the beach.

The sea front view is amazing and unusual for a private residential project in this area, usually occupied exclusively by resorts and hotels.

The idea was to maximize this potential with semi-detached sea front villas and keep a large part of the land as a “buffer” landscaped area to prevent noise from the road.

The construction is composed of 3 units: Two 3 bedrooms villas, and one 4 bedrooms villa, each with a private 10mX3m swimming pool.

The construction was raised to 1.8 meter from the beach level in order to keep a good privacy from the public beach, maximize the sea view and prevent from site erosion.

The interior layout offers a generous sea view for each space:

- On the ground floor the kitchen, dining and living room are merged in one single space mono-oriented to the beach front while the back has been designed with a patio open to the sky to bring sunlight, natural ventilation and a nice sequence for entrance and staircase with the pond and the interior tropical garden.

Master bedrooms are open to the infinity swimming pool and by extension to the sea. In the back, each bathroom has a private garden with Jacuzzi, bringing light, ventilation and strong outdoor/indoor connection.

- On the first floor, all bedrooms have a large ocean view with floor to ceiling windows recessed in the concrete structure providing enough shadows.

On the front, the flat roof becomes a huge timber decking terrace, extending possibilities to contemplate the ocean. In the back, are located the bathrooms, naturally ventilated through timber louvers.
