You
may have seen a picture of the Crazy House in Dalat, Vietnam, but you
need to see more because it looks different from every angle! It's even
changed since
we posted about it in
2012. Jürgen Horn and Mike Powell made time to take a tour and see
every thing from the roof to the new construction in progress.
Conceived
by Vietnamese architect Đặng Việt Nga, the Crazy House opened in 1990
as a guest house. Her creation immediately made a splash on the
architectural scene, with its cave-like rooms and organic tree-like
passageways (mostly) drawing praise. Throughout its life, the Hằng Nga
(as it’s officially known) has undergone continuous renovations and
expansions; a new aquatic-themed room was being crafted during our
visit.
