Geometric Cave-Like Homes

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

23o5studio Has Designed a Striking Home in Ho Chi Minh City

— April 14, 2022 — Art & Design
This cave-like home, designed by 23o5studio and located in Ho Chi Minh City, plays around with the notion of traditional housing in the neighborhood and encourages an active lifestyle.

The cave-like home draws inspiration from traditional architecture, however, the studio infused the structure with playful geometric cutouts that capture the attention of passers-by. The name of the house is 'Red Cave' and one can see playful greenery poking out from what looks like to be a sizable balcony.

The private residence is also designed with active lifestyles and wellness in mind. 23o5studio includes a yoga suite on the first floor. Although the facade of the building points that there are no windows, the suite is filled with light through a "large skylight, [which] illuminates the space while retaining privacy."
