Stacking Green

Location: Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam

Architect: Vo Trong Nghia

Its facade may suggest that this is a home for plants, but it is actually a home for humans. With rows of concrete planters covering the front and back surfaces of the rectangular structure, both the exterior and interior views can benefit from the rich greenery surrounding the living quarters. The planters include automatic watering pipes, while partition walls, an exterior staircase, and a rooftop garden provide multiple spaces to blend indoor and outdoor living.
