A Vietnamese Tubehouse and a Chinese Shophouse in Southeast Asia are both high-density and medium-height urban house types of deep and narrow plans. Moreover, they have many things in common such as the overall plan layouts, their forms and materials as well as the influence of overseas Chinese. If we carefully look into these two house types, however, we can also be aware of sharp distinctions between the two. From the appearance, the Shophouse has a very unique 'five-foot way' in front of the house, and it is usually wider and less deep than the Tubehouse. In the spatial usage, the Shophouse shows much closer relationship with the Chinese courtyard house, while the Tubehouse of Vietnamese people reveals the influence of Southeast Asian culture. These differences are repeated in the use of attic space and the adoption of decorative motives inside and outside of the house.In this paper, we scrutinized the differences between the Vietnamese Tubehouse and the Chinese shophouse and tried to explain that these differences came from the historical backgrounds and the geographical environments from which those house types had been made. |
