Nguyen Khai Architects & Associates (NKAA) has designed Labri in Hue, Vietnam.

Labri house was designed and developed by NKAA for the owners, an older couple looking into the next phase of their lives in Vietnam: retirement.

"Labri is a home for anyone who wants to find inner peace and recognize our origin as nature lovers," said NKAA. "We believe that the existence of minimalism in how we think, feel and act will lead us to sustainable value."

The project combines concrete and glass materials to create a unique and "secret home" nestled in the surrounding greenery – while the interiors are focused on fulfilling basic needs within a minimalist aesthetic.

This project has been shortlisted in the urban house category of Dezeen Awards 2023.
