| The Binh house, designed by Vo Trong Nghia Architects, has been voted the house of the year at the World Architecture Festival being held in the Philippines this week. It is now a finalist for World Building of the Year.
A new house in Ho Chi Minh City has taken out the big housing award at the World Architecture Festival in the Philippines.
The Binh house, by Vo Trong Nghia Architects, has been judged the best house in the world for 2017.
But while the stacked Jenga-like form of this new house in Ho Chi Minh City gives it a strong sense of solidity and permanence, the house is also about maximising natural light and forging close links with nature, which are often missing in modern cities.
