Design Details
- Unique Properties
- The main influence on the architectural conceptualization was the local culture leverage, combining light tropical architecture, ancient Champa culture, and traditional Vietnamese architecture. Consequently, it was reformulated using contemporary architecture as a base to evoke those references and at the same time adapted to the needs of the location with the best modern solutions.

Besides the initial client requirements, after the site study and preliminary approach, the design team proposed alternative solutions to handle the site adaptation thereby reducing the construction impact yet keeping the outcomes unchanged.

The diversity and product quality is a goal that needs to be adjusted to each type of user.
