Next project | RETREAT HOME

Nestled quietly under the canopy of the coconut forest swaying in the gentle breeze, the simple house comes into existence thanks to the reflections of the dawn sunlight. The house has a simple modern look, inheriting the shape of a traditional house with 3 compartments and 2 wings, with a large veranda surrounding it. The veranda is a transitional space and acts as a climate regulator for the whole house. Not only that, but it is also a place where countless activities connect people with the surrounding open space. The rooms all open to the garden and the doorways pull the garden into its deepest recesses. The nuanced transitions of time and space also take place in the cut of this patio.

Next project | Marina Saigon Villa

Lifestyle in marina has its own taste and the lifestyle at Marina Saigon Villa is special in the way you enjoy your own life. Even if you’ve never owned a yacht, you’ll easily join the club of hobby-loving descendants of nineteenth-century European aristocrats. Starting from the Marina with sparkling turquoise sails at the place of every villa, you manually control the yacht to satisfy conquering emotional moments.

Every time you step on the yacht, you will understand that time is never an issue for you to come to the trading center and stock exchange right in the heart of Saigon Trade Center.

  • After a few minutes on the yacht, you have touched your favorite golf club.
  • About 30 minutes to cross the Saigon River to enjoy the fresh air in Can Gio Unesco Biosphere Reserved and only that much time to go upstream to Cu Chi tunnels or anywhere you want to go.
  • Discover the beauty of the landscape of the vast river and sky.

Next project | CLOUD STREAM

CLOUD STREAM

Following the wind, the stream flows in all directions,

The foggy road is dotted with flying dew drops.

Love is drunk at night in dreams,

Filled with the call of the human realm.

SUỐI MÂY

Theo làn gió suối tuôn về muôn nẻo,

Đường mù sương lấm tấm hạt sương bay.

Tình men say gối đêm vào giấc mộng,

Cho ngập lời tiếng gọi cõi nhân sinh.

Next project | INVISIBLE

The overlapping layers of color create emotional and material depth, symbolizing disintegration and rebirth. The contrast between light and darkness, emphasizes the struggle between hope and suffering, opening up an abstract space rich in philosophical reflections on existence and history.

Các lớp màu chồng lên nhau tạo nên chiều sâu cảm xúc và vật chất, tượng trưng cho sự tan rã và tái sinh. Sự tương phản giữa ánh sáng và bóng tối, nhấn mạnh cuộc đấu tranh giữa hy vọng và đau khổ, mở ra một không gian trừu tượng giàu những suy ngẫm triết học về sự tồn tại và lịch sử.

Next project | Zen Garden

Zen garden carries the breath of nature, located in the coniferous forest, receiving the morning sun, immersed in the coolness of the beach. People move in free space without being constrained by position and frame of reference. The displacement no longer depends on the inside, the lower, the high and the low. Heaven and earth, plants, flowers, people become one, each step carries the breath of the pure land.

Next project | The Ideas competition for Thu Thiem Master Plan

The idea for the Thu Thiem master plan is to create a peninsula filled with trees and water. The urban spatial morphological structure is towards the average spatial scale in harmony with the existing urban space scale. The central square is connected by canals that lead the flow through the wetland forest. Surrounding the Saigon River are open parks, creating a gap connecting with the high-density  urban space on the west bank of the Saigon River.

The idea of ​​​​the master plan of the Thu Thiem new urban center has surpassed more than 29 other contest projects (14 international and 15 Vietnamese), becoming one of the projects that won the high prize after the project selected by SASKI Inc. Company.  Some ideas of this alternative have been added in the detail planning of the concept of SASAKI.

The selection committee includes famous urban experts at home and abroad such as: Professor John Lang-New South Wales, Professor William S.W. Lim-Singapore, Prof. Nguyen The Ba, Prof. Nguyen Manh Thu, …).

The late Prime Minister Vo Van Kiet looked at the plan

Next project | Wooden Carving House

For generations, the wood carving skills of Hue carpenters have been recorded in history. Embossed strokes on the arms, upper, piercing, tickle have revealed the subtlety that lies in each wood grain. The touch is really delicate, when the chisel touches the wood grain to remove the excess, the shape of the phoenix flowers and leaves appears in the emptiness of space. The touch of the wooden panel is not simple, the dual frame system creates a “layer overlap”, creating space depth, turning the limit into infinity. Thanks to these decorations, Hue’s palaces, temples, palaces, mausoleums and houses have transcended material limitations to reach the heights of emotional art to become a UNESCO World Heritage. The proud lies in the delicately carved soul of the talented craftsman from all over the country, wanting to offer beauty to the Buddhas, the Kings and the Ancestors.
