LZ的Love Spa是位于越南Thanh Hoa市的一栋有吸引力的独特外墙的建筑。该项目是一个成功的尝试，以适应这些要求的不同和冲突的性质，从一个标志性的外墙中筛选出一个有活力的建筑目的，以艺术的方式呈现。

LZ’s Love Spa is a single building covered with an attractive unique façade, located in Thanh Hoa city, Vietnam. The project is a successful attempt to accommodate the disparate and conflicting nature of these requirements, screened from an iconic façade to present energetic of the building’s purpose in an artful way.

该建筑的场地紧邻正在施工的大型公寓楼，这意味着需要解决周围的空气和噪音污染问题。此外，该建筑有一个420平方米的外墙，因为它的位置靠近十字路口，面向西方和南方，这导致需要找到一个解决方案来调节全年的热增益。

The site of the building is next to large-sized apartment blocks under construction, which means to require solving surrounding issues from air and noise pollution. Also, the structure has a 420-square-meter facade because of its location close to a crossroad, facing the west and south, which leads to finding a solution to regulate heat gain throughout the year.

从一开始，业主就希望建筑不仅具有两种不同的功能：一个美容院和一个家庭的家，而且是一栋建筑。虽然美容院需要容易的视觉识别、街道通道和开放空间，但住宅单元被要求同时拥有私人空间和自己的入口。因此，该项目要求在街道上有一个标志性的建筑，吸引人们进入一个新的观察方式，成为一个华丽的存在。”该建筑将激起路人的好奇心。里面有什么故事？” 客户说。因此，我们认为外立面设计在回答可持续发展和形象目的问题上至关重要。

From the very beginning, the vision of its owner desired the building not only with two different functions: a beauty salon and a home for a family- into one building. While the salon demanded easy visual recognition, street access, and open spaces, the residential unit was asked to get both private spaces and its own entrance. Consequently, the project requires an iconic construction in the street, captivating people into a new way of looking, becoming a gorgeous existence. “The building will provoke passer-bys’ curiosity: What is the story behind inside? ” said the client. Therefore, we believed that facade design is crucial in answering questions of sustainability and imagery purposes.

内部空间。在设计这栋三层楼的建筑时，实现空间和组织的灵活性是概念过程中的一个关键部分。美容院占据了一楼的两层，而家庭活动的私密性则在顶楼得到保持。考虑到内部流通，它有三个主要入口，分别用于顾客、员工和居民的进出。流通的布局需要在水平和垂直方向上符合逻辑，这确保了两种功能，即商业和家庭活动的独立运作。此外，主中庭的设计是为了连接所有的工作空间，以获得壮观的景色。内部的双体量与位于前面的外部体量相连接，因此所有的空间都相互交错。这种空间的连续性是所有工作空间互动的关键作用。因此，商业生活是完全分离的，这并不影响三楼的家庭活动。

Interior space: When designing the three-story building, achieving spatial and organizational flexibility was a critical part of the concept process. The beauty salon occupies the two first floors, while the privacy of family activities is maintained on the top floor. Considering internal circulation, it has three main entrances separately for customers, staff, and residents’ approaches. The layout of circulation has needed to be logical in terms of horizontal and vertical directions, which ensures two functions, business and family activities, working independently. Furthermore, the main atrium is designed to link all working spaces to have spectacular views. The internal double volume connects to the external one situated in the front so that all spaces interlock each other. This spatial continuity performs as the key role to interact throughout all working spaces. As a result, the business life is entirely separated, which does not affect family activities on the third floor.

外观。通过建筑概念，我们充分认识到，仅仅通过玻璃围墙来获得开放性是徒劳的，因为420平方米的玻璃立面会吸收太阳辐射。此外，为了满足形式和外观两个功能要求的挑战，我们设计了一个单一的系统，可以大大扩展建筑需求的范围，同时表达空间的深度感。因此，我们采用了双层结构，由玻璃墙和图形穿孔的铝板组成。这种材料是为动态界面量身定做的，同时也是后面的玻璃板的可持续屏幕，并使其具有节能性。正如客户所期望的那样，立面是外部和内部的互动，它将一种观点延伸到另一种观点。此外，室外建筑和外部围护结构与沿途的中庭和室内体量结合在一起，表现出LZ的爱情温泉的标志性外墙。

Exterior: Through the architectural concept, we fully realized that simply obtaining openness by featuring a glass enclosure sounds futile since a 420-square-meter glass façade would absorb the solar radiation. Besides, to meet the challenge of two function requirements for form and appearance, we devised a singular system that would greatly extend the wide spectrum of architectural needs while concurrently expressing a sense of depth in space. Therefore, a double skin structure is applied, which consists of glass walls and graphically perforated aluminum sheets. The material is tailored to a dynamic interface and, simultaneously, being a sustainable screen for the glass panel behind and making it energy-efficient. As the client’s prospect, the façade is the interaction between exterior and interior, which extends one view into another. Further, the outdoor building and exterior envelop join together with the along atrium and interior volume to perform an iconic façade of LZ’s Love Spa.
