Jinjee House, designed by Tad.atelier, is a 160-square-meter home located on a gently sloping plot on the outskirts of Buon Ma Thuot City, Vietnam. Built for a young family of four, the house embraces a "just enough" design philosophy that prioritizes essential needs and harmony with the landscape. Through staggered levels that follow the terrain, layered transitional spaces, and a thoughtful balance of raw and refined materials, the design creates a seamless connection between architecture and nature, offering a calm and intentional living experience.
