Hanoi means inside the rivers. To be nurtured, fostered. Embankment by the Red River and Day River, Hanoi has existed and developed into a city a first-class capital, where the quintessence of Tonkin converges. The image of rivers has been imprinted in everyone’s subconscious Hanoi. The authors were inspired by the softness of the Red River as the main idea to evoke the look of old Hanoi for the landscape of LK5, LK6. The winding curves created from the color of the paving materials are the “flow” continuously and throughout the landscape, seamlessly connecting the spaces in a natural way. For the pedestrian street behind the building, a transformative curve flows continuously to recall the above idea, but is combined with shade trees to create a soft and fresh, modern tropical beauty.

Housing units we have designed in the previous phase.

We designed landscape of LK3, LK5,6. LK3 will be a walking shophouse stree

LK3 adjoining commercial housing area brings continuity in terms of architectural form from the row of houses LK1-2. On that foundation.

We designed the evocative LK3 area landscape appearance of the neighboring islands of Singapore. These “island” stops at the area between the enclosed blocks wrapped by waves with highly permeable concrete material hue. The association of the identity of a city in the middle of the sea is the main factor that creates the attraction for landscape architecture this project.

Areas LK1, LK2, LK3 in the previous steps get ideas. The main idea is Singaporean style, courtyard landscape gardens of these zones inspired from the islands in the ocean make up no landscape space is continuous, transparent, in tune with building architecture.However, the works in LK5, LK6 designed inspired by Hanoi Old Quarter, with 4-storey height, suitable proportions to createthe spaces are close, simple but still exudes elegance and class. So the idea of ​​​​the landscape for these 2 areas is also must be adapted to harmonize with the whole architecture, help beautify and raise the level for the whole area, creating a uniqueness individual. Basically, the landscape of these two areas is still needed the successor of the previous zones in terms of materials, love demand for functions and utilities, but there must be something new strange in ideas, architectural forms and landscapes LK3 master plan

TP Vĩnh Long

Phuoc Tho residential area project is located in ward 3, Vinh Long city, is the center of the Mekong Delta with many cultural features. The project owns an extremely favorable location of Vinh Long City when it is located on the main axis of National Highway 53 (Pho Co Dieu Street) connecting from National Highway 1 running directly to the center of the City. This is the lifeline when connecting all neighboring economic regions; 3km south of the provincial administrative center, this is a favorable area to form a civilized and environmentally friendly living space.

Zone area

As a rich land, located next to Cai Ca River, a tributary of the Co Chien River, creating a terrain here with semi-mangrove areas. creating favorable conditions for the development of tourism in the unique gardens and islands in the South. The characteristic of the region in this place is that it is surrounded by a system of rivers and canals, creating a great advantage to balance the ideal living ecosystem for the population. Taking advantage of that ideal natural condition, the overall Phuoc Tho project is a combination of mangrove nature and Everglades lagoon house architecture in Florida, USA style.

The project has a total area of ​​115,354.5 m2 divided into 2 main subdivisions: Phuoc Tho 1 and Phuoc Tho 2. The whole project has 485 low-rise housing lots divided into 19 typical models. The plots range in size from 82.8 m2 to 134.3 m2. The lowest width is 3.5 m2, the highest is 7.5 m2. The lowest length is 18.4 m2, the longest is 25 m2. Infrastructure and traffic are growing and expanding, which is favorable for the project.

Traffic

One of the special things of Phuoc Tho residential is it has a long riverside, almost covering the entire project. This is a landscape advantages and create value for real estate. We use soft, flexible lines, reminding lines to recreate the image of water waves as well as match the context, keeping the general idea of the ​​ project is Natural flow. At some point, we create square areas, public spaces to serve the spiritual life of residents.

Landscape

inspiration and ideas

Modern life brings people many conveniences, but it also pushes us into a busy and hectic whirlpool, sometimes bringing a lot of stress. The simplest thing to help us relax and relax is to immerse ourselves in the nature and landscape where we live. Nature is also a living dictionary, the best environment for children to develop themselves. Understanding that need, Phuoc Tho residential area is developed in the center of Vinh Long city, Vinh Long province, is a place that fully integrates the elements of beautiful living, living close to nature, bearing the identity of the people. The concept of the whole project is derived from the modern urban area along the Everglades swamp, Florida with many green spaces, semi-submerged water surface space and typical Mediterranean architecture, suitable for the climate.

Lots of sun and wind here.

From that natural inspiration, we use images of river flows in the Everglades National Park, Florida USA and the Mekong River, the source of the Mekong Delta to take soft and flexible lines and apply them to landscape design of Phuoc Tho project area. This natural flow is not only a physical image, applied from the layout to the small details but also the operation of the universe, of nature, the four seasons of flowers, and the rain. sunny. Inspiration is also repeated in the arrangement of utilities, maximizing activities to increase interaction with nature, taking advantage of the current landscape of the area. All in order to give residents a space of rest, complete relaxation and quality living environment. True to the desire to create an ecological riverside urban area in the South.

FORumCHILD - DETECH School / ATEK architects Location Architect in Charge Area Status Project Year My task

Nam Tu Liem Dist, Hanoi, Vietnam Nguyen Tuan Anh 7200.0 m2 Concept 04/2020 PROJECT TEAM LEADER, Presentation

“FORrumCHILD - a forum for children or a school as a small public space” I got this project by chance during Hanoi’s isolation time period after graduating from my master’s degree. I worked with ATEK Architects on a project before going to Italy in 2017 so it was very interesting to get access to a school project as a project team leader. In my opinion, like ATEK, when accepting a school design project, the first thing to do is to understand every aspect. Because we are not merely designing a building for teaching purposes. “A good architectural design has to address the core problems of the project”.

Following the project idea as FORumCHILD, COMMUNITY SPACE IN SCHOOLS, let’s consider each forum as a factor for the layout to suit the status quo, problem requirements, solving the analyzed problems.

FORUM: it can be an outdoor space, an open space, an indoor space, a sports space or a learning exchange space.

Forum classifications are divided into three categories of properties: mental forum. Forum mobilization - social, Forum quiet from there, there are directions to arrange and link these 3 types of forums.

Under trees - NT3 School / ATEK architects Location Architect in Charge Area Status Project Year My task

Giao Luu City, Nam Tu Liem Dist, Hanoi, Vietnam Nguyen Tuan Anh 3500.0 m2 Concept 07/2020 PROJECT TEAM LEADER, Presentation

“A garden for children”” The second project with ATEK is a school in Nam Tu Liem, but with different theme : a kindergarten and primary school. The location of the site is the Giao luu city area, with a very large lake in front with a very beautiful landscape. Therefore, we take the idea that a garden, under the green trees, will be a play space for children. Because school is considered a small universe for the child, the purpose of education for us is to teach the child to be a kind person, love nature, love family. Thus, the garden is extended and connected from the lake, up to the roof. School architecture should not be just a structural structure, by approaching the problem from the main users of children and by extension communication to nature, we think we can bring schools closer. with the child over. This should be a garden that brings enough feeling and harmony with its surroundings.

Life under the sun is to be able to hear the smell of flowers, to feel the vibrations of the trees when the wind is gently blowing and to be able to hear the birds singing somewhere, to feel the cool breeze from the lake. . The design concept is to approach a natural shade on a tropical garden. “Under trees”. A soft architecture with a cover becomes a porous layer of leather creating spatial levels and vivid shadows throughout the building.

The site located at No. 9 Hai Ba Trung, Trang Tien Ward, Hoan Kiem District is currently the Nguyen Truong To Vocational and Regular School. The work was built a long time ago (about 20 years of use), has many repairs. The last time was in 2018, adding classes to serve a part of Ngo Sy Lien Secondary School during the main school’s renovation and upgrading.

Currently, the campus is 1381m2 wide, including 2 blocks, 1 block 2 floors in front of Hai Ba Trung Street, 1 block of 5-storey L-shaped house, U-shaped, with a construction area of ​​943m2, construction density reaches 68.28%. The total number of classes being served is 40 classes. However, there is a complete lack of basic school spaces such as a minimum playground (the first floor yard is used as a motorbike parking space), function rooms if you want to use it as a secondary school.

In addition, surrounding the site are other buildings, no empty space. To the east is the back of a building belonging to the Hanoi Art College, 5 floors high. The West is a low-rise residential house with no specific plan. The site has two entrances, a main gate from Hai Ba Trung Street and a side gate from Pham Su Manh Street. With the proposal of a high-quality secondary school project, it is necessary to have a closer survey of geology, vibration, and specific calculations to ensure the operability of the new building as well as not affect the existing one. surrounding property.

Among the grapefruit garden of a large farm, Mian Farm Cottage has a fine view of Ba Vi mountain range. The love of nature is in harmony with the particular traits of the contemporary architecture such as the simple outlines, the rich natural light and the connection between inside and outside. All bring about the inspiration for designing.

There are two main units: The central section with living room, dinning room, kitchen which was rebuilt on the basement of the broken down building; and the bedrooms which were reformed on the old structures.

The building block seems to be floating above the grass. The horizontal shape makes the building form simple and modest while sheltering behind the foliage. The large glass surface overlooks the garden and the distant mountains.

Because of far away from the city, the easier in construction the better, so the solution was creating the whole building structure in steel, that simplified the process and took only two months for constructing. Compared with using concrete structure, using steel was reduced the expense as much as possible. Laterite was one of the local materials used in finishing work.

We were assigned to design a corner villa in an urban finished civil work. In here, series of apartments were finished civil work and sold many years ago. The villa overlooks a wide space with an extensive view and a large meadow. From the inside of villa, one can see the whole of Western view - the main hot direction of Vietnam climate. Requirements for architects including the use for a family with 2 children with a modern life style, extension space will take all advantage of the view, be able to prevent high temperature by direct light from Western as well as keep security because of low population density here.

The design is discussed with a simple and condensed cube but still keep the harmony with the whole architecture around. It is easy to see the villa far from the meadow. A large pent-roof is designed round the first floor to shade the sun for inside space. The above pent-roof will be a big balcony where can seat to sight the meadow every morning. The whole front of villa will be use a flexible brise-soleil system which is able to open wide and close, therefore it is able to adjust the light into the house and keep security. Belongs to weather and feeling, the house can be open minded or closed with outside.

We have had the opportunity to do quite a lot of apartment furniture, renovating old dormitories, but this is my favorite project because it has elements such as simplicity, full of light and good use of each space. space. This is an apartment with open space and lots of light.

Therefore, the owner wants to spend a lot of space for trees and a common space for the children to play. The solution is to sacrifice an unnecessary toilet to expand the kitchen and dining room, connecting the rear balcony with the common space for light and wind that can be entered from two directions in the house. The long balcony is arranged with green trees, connected to the living room space and an indoor wooden yard, extending the green space into the house. The dining table runs along the kitchen, overlooking the wooden platform, where the mother can cook while observing her children, expanding the communication space for members.

AquaBay Mimosa Villa is located in the green city of Ecopark, where the landscape is close to nature. The owner is a middle-aged couple with the desire to have a house filled with light, fully furnished but simple and tidy. We do not use too many decorations, but focus on designing long standing cabinets, wall cabinets to be able to hold as many items as possible. White tones and walnut colors create a clean but warm feeling to the homeowner.

I have been involved in the survey, design ideas, construction drawings, interior detailed drawings and selection of construction finishing materials as well as interior materials. This is a fairly simple project, the time to design and complete within 6 months, but what I learned after this project is how to work with the investor.

Vertical Urban Footprint / Thesis

New Saigon’s Residential Riverfront . Prof. Matteo Moscateli Location Project Year

Thu Duc Dist, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam 01 - 12/2019

Along with this economic development, big cities in Vietnam, especially Ho Chi Minh City, are witnessing a wave of young people from all over the country, pouring in to live and settle down. The consequence is that housing demand for this kind of client spikes. According to statistics in 2019, the population of HCMC is nearly 9 million, with 7.12 million in urban areas, of which 30% are young workers and 60% young people ( from 25 to 35 years old) are single or newly married. However, the current urban housing funds almost all focus on low-income families or young families, with closed apartment design ( 1-2 bedrooms) and low-priced housing. Meanwhile, the demand for housing for young people, mostly start-ups, is not high-priced but affordable, near the workplace, connect to the city center and the airport, comfortable enough, and may enhance the connection between individuals.

I’m from South Asia, one from Hanoi, Vietnam, another one comes from China. In our country, the shortage of housing, the trend of tall buildings has been the issue in recent years till for the future. Therefore, within the framework of this thesis, we focus on addressing Urban Living Spaces and Housings’ needs that are suitable for young people living in the central districts of HCMC. Specifically, focusing on Tall buildings along the Saigon River. Because currently, the development of tall buildings is already in the city’s urban planning.

FUNCTIONALITY ANALYSIS

SQUARE ATMOSPHERIC CONDITIONS HCMC has the typical climate of southern Vietnam which has a the tropical climate, with an average humidity of 75%. A year is divided into two distinct seasons. The average temperature is 280C; the highest temperature sometimes reaches 390C around noon in late April, while the lowest may fall below 160C in the early mornings of late December. It can be stated that cooling is the dominant demand throughout the year in HCMC. The number of sunny hours is high and the heat is high, so in the design of a high-rise building, priority to avoid hot sun, the best direction to catch the wind is to the South and the North. Avoid the East-West direction because of the high solar radiation, it is necessary to have a plan for sun protection if the building façade rotates a lot in this direction.

CONCEPT

We start with the size of the site and approaches. The land has favorable terrain when there are 4 sides adjacent to roads for cars. So we thought of an option to cut off an access road just for pedestrians and bicycles.

Required land must have a construction density of not more than 50%, and must have a distance from the rood at least 10 m. After studying the road and housing network, we use the diagonal lines to divide the land.

Based on the study of shadows and wind direction, we arrange the blocks and elevations in accordance with the required function. The central area is chosen as the public space connected to the river front.

Add a landscape section and ancillary functions to complete the overall design for the area.

The project is now situated in the south-eastern area of Milan. We are proposing a social housing combining markets and greenhouse on the roof to create a novel model for people who suffered by low salary and the elderly to have a self-sufficient life. All the material and technology we choose are based on the latest trend and information. The cost of them are low, defining as long lasting aesthetics as well. As for the most important part on the rooftop is called the Hydroponic Garden System. It’s smart and environmentally friendly, not only achieving saving the soil but also recycling the water system. The main goal for our project is to maximize flexibility, making the building sustainable and able to share with everyone.

Filter Island

The 3rd Low card city Design Competition : Re-shaping urban coastal land-scapes Location Project Year

Hibikinada Area, Kitakyushu, Japan 10/2013

Inspired by the rotation and recycling of organic waste into energy, biochar use as a raw material to filter CO2 is also used as a fertilizer. Biochar a charcoal-like substance produced from agriculture and forest wastes. It has high active carbon surface area that is produced through naerobic heating of biomass. Composition-wise, it contains 70% carbon and the remaining elements are hydrogen, oxygen and nitrogen.Biochar is used as soil enhancer to increase fertility, prevent soil degradation and to sequester carbon in the soil. It improves soil fertility by retaining water and nutrients in soil, encouraging beneficial soil organisms and thereby reducing the need for additional use of fertilizers.

Biochar can store carbon in the soil for as many as hundreds to thousands of years (IBI, 2008). Biochar technology is different from the conventional charcoal production because it is highly efficient in the conversion of carbon and harmful pollutants are not released upon combustion.
