Summary
ODDO Architects has extended the TH+ House in Hanoi, Vietnam, adding a narrow 2.5-metre-wide extension for the client's growing family. The design organizes shared, flexible spaces around tall vertical voids inspired by the "social intensity" of Hanoi's urban alleyways. The extension prioritizes natural light, ventilation, and communal living areas over private rooms, creating a multi-level home that encourages family interaction.
