Due to the expensive price of land in Ho Chi Minh City, Story Architecture comes with an open solution vertically and horizontally for this project. Located in Vietnam, City House 5×20 has a simple construction by choosing a white-painted iron railing. This simple aspect also includes painting the whole house in white.

On the ground floor, the stairs are pressed to one side to create a staircase on one side. This way is done by using potted plants and wooden slats to divide the house’s space and create a good connection to the outside view.
On the remaining floors of the house, floor vents are created to take in natural light and wind. On the side of the floor vent, the bedroom sidewalls don’t build walls but create glass doors that combined with curtains to get light. When need more privacy, close the curtain.

The floor vents are cut to bring out the vibrancy and softness of the house and also avoid monotony. These cuts are done with different curves for each floor of the house to create a variety of views. The frosted glass can be found in the toilet, taking wind and light from above so the toilet will always be antibacterial and dry.
