The house is the “artwork” of artist Trinh Ba Dung, owner of the Da Lat Star complex. What makes it stand out is the fact it was 100 percent made from red basaltic soil, the typical soil of the Central Highlands. The soil after combined with other materials, has great bearing capacity, durability and can withstand natural effects like nature, rain. Above all, the new soil still retains the specific color of red basaltic soil.
