THIÊN Y – HUẾ CITADEL

Beasts House

The most traditional of the three houses, Beasts House is an authentic Huế wooden dwelling relocated from a nearby coastal village and carefully restored.

It is partly set above its own pool, creating subtle changes in level and perspective.

Beasts House draws directly from origins, being composed almost exclusively of primal materials:  rough stone, Lào Cai slate and basalt, an ancient wooden structure, and massive furniture made of unpainted hardwood.

Decorative motifs and carvings follow Huế traditions in their most elemental expression. Mythical beasts

from Vietnamese culture appear throughout, alongside Western cosmic counterparts, reflecting Huế’s long and layered dialogue with the West.

Will you find them all?
