The F Lab Office & Workshop

The house at 236C Le Trong Tan has been home for a family of four since 2003. Throughout the years, the double-height ground floor with mezzanine has transformed from living room to motorbike parking to a golf equipment shop. In 2017, the family's daughter decided to turn this space into an office and workshop for her event planning company, The F Lab.

This scrapbook is a repository of the year and a half of sketching, rendering, meeting online, then building and furnishing the space. It documents rawly the whole operation, the back and forth, the fun, and also the mishaps. The completion of this first-phase renovation in 2018 marked the start of an ongoing transformation process that is still building up the potentials of this resilient typology of urban dwelling.
