架构师提供的文本描述。房子宽4米，长20米，包括1层半地下室，1层夹层，3层以上由钢筋混凝土框架和砖墙建造，总建筑面积238平方米。这个概念是创造一个连接所有其他功能空间的“中间空间”，这个开放空间要么是庭院、内部空间，要么是半开放的公共空间，而在其他地方则是半封闭的，以保护住宅的必要隐私。卢浮宫和滑动玻璃屋顶面积设计，以最大限度地与外部环境的联系，克服了与外界接触的限制，为如此长和狭窄的联排别墅。其他更分散的区域，如卧室和浴室，通过贯穿整个房子的内部空隙，暴露在这个“中间空间”。这些空间可以随时打开或关闭。

Text description provided by the architects. The house is 4m wide by 20m long including 1 semi-basement, 1 mezzanine floor and 3 stories above constructed by RC frame and brick walls with a total of 238sqm floor area. The concept is to create an “intermediate space” connecting all other functional spaces, this open space is either courtyard, internal void or common space semi-opened to the outside while semi-closed in other to protect the necessary privacy of the residence. Louver Façade and Sliding Glass roofs area designed to maximize the connection with outside environment overcoming the limitation of getting in touch with the outside for such long and narrow townhouse. Other more discrete areas such as bedrooms and bathrooms expose to this “intermediate space” through the internal void running throughout the house. These spaces can be opened or closed whenever necessary.

绿色植物位于这个“中间空间”内，包括3个巴比伦花园，里面有比地面高约4米的中等高度的树木。这些充满阳光和风的花园给人们带来了放松的感觉，缩短了与自然的距离，这对联排来说是相当困难的。将整个空间与“中间空间”结合起来，可以帮助居住在室内的人们在房子内的任何地方享受这些花园。分功能空间，如车库、储藏室、技术房等，均位于房屋下端，但与实际居住空间相隔，而实际起居空间位于上部，以接近外界的大气。自然通风和照明有助于有效地减少能源。

Greenery is located inside this “intermediate space” including 3 Babylon gardens provided with medium height trees which are about 4m higher than ground level. These gardens filled with sunlight and winds bring in the relaxing feelings for the people and shorten the distance to nature which is quite difficult for townhouse. Unifying the whole space with the “intermediate space” helps people living inside to enjoy these gardens wherever they are within the house. Sub-functional spaces such as garage, storage, technical rooms are located in the lower part of the house attached but separated with the actual living space which is located in the upper part to get close to the outside atmosphere. Natural ventilation and lighting helps reducing the energy effectively.

越南典型的联排别墅受到旧城商业传统的旧习惯的影响，每栋房子都试图与前面的街道保持联系，结果形成了很长很窄的立面，门面非常有限，其中一些甚至不到400万。类似的例子可以在河内的36条街道或海安古镇找到。随着城市人口的不断增加，需要在房屋中加装更多的楼板，使之更高，这也使得城市居民的生活条件更难保证，这就需要自然通风和照明。本项目以绿色“中间空间”为理念，希望能成为此类越南联排别墅的新模式，为人们提供舒适、放松的生活条件。

Typical townhouse of Vietnam is influenced by the old habit of old city commercial tradition where every house tries to get in touch with the front street and resulted in very long and narrow sites with very limited façade, some of them even smaller than 4m. Similar examples can be found in 36  streets of Hanoi or ancient town of Hoi An. Expanding in city population nowadays led to the necessity of putting more slabs in the house and making them higher, this also makes it harder to ensure the living condition of them which demands natural ventilation and lighting. With the concept of using green “intermediate space”, this project is hoped to be a new model for such type of Vietnamese townhouse providing the people the enjoyable and relaxing living condition.
