TPO - As a renovation project for a 30-year-old house, recognizing that the overall shape of the house was already beautiful, the investor and architect decided to retain the original form and only repair and change what was necessary, ensuring that the new design harmonizes with the old structure.

The two-story house has deteriorated over time (it's estimated to be about 30 years old), but its structure is quite unique, a harmonious combination of wood and concrete, with a double-layered sloping roof creating a beautiful skylight.

Recognizing that the overall shape of the house was already beautiful, the owner and architect decided to retain the original form and only make necessary modifications, ensuring that the new design harmonizes with the existing structure.
 |
The homeowner wanted to change the layout to better suit their daily life and usage. Therefore, a multi-purpose room near the entrance was added, along with a separate bathroom. On the second floor, three smaller bedrooms were combined into a spacious master bedroom with an en-suite bathroom and a smaller but comfortable guest bedroom. With parking available nearby, the existing parking space in front of the house was transformed into a garden.

The original skylight in the house was something that needed to be highlighted, so the architect decided to emphasize it by removing part of the second floor to create a double-height space connecting the living area on the first floor with the skylight, making this the central design element of the entire renovation process.
 |
Based on the sun's path, the light will filter through the house throughout the day.
 |
The staircase next to the skylight is kept as clean and minimalist as possible so as not to obstruct natural light, while the addition of blue paint colors here creates depth and gives the house a unique look.

 |
To help the house feel lighter without disrupting its original structure, the color scheme is kept to a minimum with white tones and warmed by using materials that reflect nature, such as brick, tile, and wood, seamlessly connecting the exterior and interior.
