In the heart of Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, the Linh Trung House by H.a reimagines a sacred ancestral site as a warm, multi-generational home.
Built around an existing worship space and tomb, the 120 m² residence blends tradition and modern living through raw materials like wood, concrete, and stone.
Large glass panels open the house to a lush green courtyard, transforming the old tomb into a garden at the center of family life.
Spaces flow naturally between indoors and outdoors, connecting generations while preserving privacy and intimacy.
Linh Trung House is a reflection on memory, family, and the quiet beauty of architecture rooted in time and place.
