The Faceted Atrium transforms a Vietnamese collective housing typology, the Khu Tap The, popular in the 1950s, into a sharehouse typology that fuses tradition with communal living. The newly proposed units demonstrate the harmonious integration of private bedroom spaces and shared public spaces to encourage connectivity and the sharing of iideas by local community members.
