Townhouses with a front yard, backyard, and skylight are among the most popular architectural trends today, especially in urban areas with narrow frontages and deep plots. This design not only optimizes natural light and ventilation but also creates a green, nature-connected living space.

1. Advantages of designing a townhouse with a front yard, backyard, and skylight

Design elements Benefits provided
Front yard Creates a setback, enhancing the façade, providing space for motorbike parking, planting greenery, or placing a small landscape feature.
Backyard Helps with air ventilation, allows for vegetable gardening, and can be used as a drying area or a convenient laundry corner.
Skylight Brings in natural light and ventilation, reducing stuffiness in the middle floors of the house.

The overall architecture is airy and well-ventilated, balances feng shui, saves energy, and is well-suited to Vietnam's hot and humid tropical climate.

2. What factors affect the architectural design cost of a townhouse with yards and a skylight?

Several factors directly influence the design cost:

  • Area and number of floors: The more floors and open spaces a house has, the more detailed the drawings need to be, leading to a higher cost per square meter.

  • Level of customization based on homeowner needs: Special requirements like elevators, fish ponds, or mini gardens increase the design workload.

  • Architectural style: Simple modern styles are generally more affordable than Indochine or Neoclassical styles.

  • 3D perspective and detailed drawings: Rendering multiple angles, color coordination, and lighting simulation will raise the unit price.
