The Hausers’ Journey at Haus Da Lat: From Construction Site to the Into the Dream Night — Realtique’s Field Experience
In early November 2026, KC Pham and Nhật Hạ of Realtique were among the 30 Hausers selected by the developer of Haus Da Lat to represent the project. Before that came several weeks of learning directly from its design partners: Kengo Kuma & Associates, 1508 London, Isometrix and Chiva-Som. Then came three days in Da Lat: hard hats on, building by building, staying until the park lit up, and walking through every show residence. A few days later, on the same grounds, Andrea Bocelli sang at Into the Dream on 7 November 2026.
This is that field diary, written for investors: what you only see by standing on site, the details a brochure cannot fully convey, and what is worth checking for yourself when you visit Haus Da Lat.

Who the Hausers Are and Why the Developer Chose Only 30
Hauser is the developer’s name for the people entrusted to present Haus Da Lat. Rather than handing brochures to as many agents as possible, the developer had a select group learn in depth from the very firms behind the project: Kengo Kuma & Associates on architecture and landscape, 1508 London on interiors, Isometrix on lighting, Chiva-Som on wellness, and the 1010 Origin team on the private club. From that group, 30 people were chosen and brought to Da Lat for a site visit.
Realtique has two people in this group: KC Pham (Founder) and Nhật Hạ. For investors, that has a practical meaning: when you ask about a material, the setback between two buildings or how the lighting is concealed within the timber slats, the answer comes from what your advisor has seen first-hand and heard the architects explain on site, not from re-reading sales material.

A Day on Site: Hard Hats On, Building by Building
Our first session in Da Lat was on the construction site. Hard hats on, we walked through the three Haus Residences buildings designed by Kengo Kuma, with the architects explaining as we stood at the foot of each structure. Details that read abstractly on paper became concrete on the ground:
- The pine forest has been kept. Around 300 pines, many more than a century old, remain on the site; the buildings are set back around the trees rather than clearing them for space.
- Roughly 17 m between buildings, enough for every residence to enjoy daylight and views of the pines rather than looking straight into its neighbour.
- 3.3 m ceiling heights inside the residences, clearly felt when standing within the structural frame.
- Timber and balconies inspired by the pine cone, a Kengo Kuma signature: architecture that does not compete with nature but blends into it.
- Two basement levels with 150 parking spaces engineered by Sweco, with at least two spaces per residence; underground infrastructure is something buyers rarely get to see for themselves.
The most valuable part of the site visit was not the numbers but seeing the quality of construction in the places that will later be hidden from view.

When the Park Lights Up: Isometrix's Melody of Lights
Only by staying into the evening do you see what daytime photos cannot show: the Melody of Lights lighting scheme by Isometrix, the studio founded in London in 1984 by architect Arnold Chan. Across the entire 5 ha there is barely a single light pole in sight: fixtures are concealed on tree trunks, beneath the water and within the timber slats. The park brightens gradually, in rhythm, the lake mirrors the lights, and a 20 m fountain becomes the central focal point.
For buyers, this is the reason to visit Haus Da Lat in the late afternoon and evening: residents and guests will experience the grounds after dark for much of their time here, and the lakeside park is open to the whole city.

Inside the Show Residence: 1508 London Specifies Down to Every Door Handle
The final part of the site visit was the show residence and the Design Exhibition. Haus Da Lat residences are handed over fully furnished, 100% imported and designed and specified by 1508 London; in the show residence, the most memorable detail is a brass door handle engraved with the Haus logo. Each piece is chosen the way a museum curates its collection, in harmony with Kengo Kuma’s timber architecture, so owners can move in straight away.
| Residence type | Bedrooms | Net floor area |
|---|---|---|
| Sky Villa | 2 bedrooms | 87.7 · 113.7 · 117.3 m² |
| Sky Villa | 3 bedrooms | 140.5 · 166.9 m² |
| Sky Mansion | 3 bedrooms | 165.6 · 180.7 m² |
| Sky Mansion | 4 bedrooms | 273.1 m², private lift |
The 1-bedroom Sky Villas are sold out. Layouts for every residence type are in our Haus Da Lat floor plans article; pricing is released by the developer residence by residence and is available on request.

The Night of 7 November: Andrea Bocelli Sings Into the Dream
A few days after the site visit, among those same pines, Haus Da Lat hosted Into the Dream: an evening with Maestro Andrea Bocelli on 7 November 2026, his first performance in Vietnam, by invitation only. Conductor Carlo Bernini led the Saigon Pops Orchestra, joined by violinist Rusanda Panfili, on a 2,000 m² mirror stage by the Giò Forma studio that reflected the pine canopy and the sky.
After the concert, the Bocelli family shared moments from Da Lat on their official channels; Veronica Berti Bocelli wrote: “Da Lat, you were a lovely surprise!”. The night of 7 November made clear what these grounds are built for: not just three buildings, but a cultural and leisure destination designed to operate for the long term.

Da Lat, a Heritage City with an International Spirit
In a separate conversation, KC Pham sat down with composer Huy Tuan to talk about Da Lat’s heritage and the city’s international character. Da Lat was planned by the French as a resort town at the start of the last century, so its architecture, climate and pace of life have long carried an international air.
Haus Da Lat chooses to continue that heritage rather than erase it: keeping the pine forest, opening the lakeside park to the city, and bringing in international names such as Kengo Kuma, 1508 London, Isometrix, Chiva-Som and InterContinental to retell the story of Da Lat.

Visiting Haus Da Lat: What Investors Should Check for Themselves
Drawn from the Hausers’ own visit, these are the points worth seeing first-hand and clarifying when you tour Haus Da Lat:
| See / ask about | Why | Where to see it |
|---|---|---|
| Construction progress of the three Haus Residences buildings | Compare against the payment schedule for the residence you intend to buy | The construction site (accompanied by an authorised guide) |
| Furnishings at handover | 100% imported, specified by 1508 London; check the exact specification for your residence type | Show residence, Design Exhibition |
| The park after dark | The experience that shapes most of your time living and hosting there | Visit in the late afternoon and evening |
| Legal file for long-term ownership | The basis for your decision, not a single event night | Developer documentation, via the distributor |
| Operated amenities | InterContinental, Haus Wellness Center by Chiva-Som, 1010 Origin | Hotel, wellness and club areas |
The legal and payment steps are covered in our Haus Da Lat buyer’s guide; for the private club, see 1010 Private Club. Foreign buyers can also purchase at Haus Da Lat, within the foreign ownership quota of 30% per building and a 50-year ownership term. KC Pham and Nhật Hạ arrange private tours of Haus Da Lat along exactly this route: construction site, show residence, Design Exhibition and the park after dark.
