该项目位于越南胡志明市的一栋高层公寓内。该单元被改造成一个住宅/展厅,游客可以在这里停留并体验一系列的家具和灯具–主要由著名的丹麦家具品牌Fritz Hansen提供。这些家具被分为5个不同的功能区:入口、起居室、餐厅、书房和睡眠区,每个区域都由不同颜色的地板装饰来界定。有机形状的花盆用热带植物填满了中间的区域,将开放的空间轻轻分开。

The project locates within A high-rise condominium in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. The unit was turned into a residence/showroom where visitors can stay and experience a collection of furniture and light fixtures- mainly by the renowned Danish furniture brand, Fritz Hansen. The furniture pieces are divided into 5 different functional zones: entrance, living, dining, study and sleeping area, each defined by a different color floor finish. Organic-shaped planters fill up the in-between area with tropical plants that gently separate the open space.

一个热带展厅–在研究了客户的家具系列后,我们认为这些家具不仅与他们原来的现代斯堪的纳维亚室内环境相匹配,而且由于其通用和永恒的设计,它们也可以完美地适应其他外国环境,例如,一个古老的历史遗迹,甚至在一个传统的日本房子。因此,我们想通过在一个新的环境中展示它们来重新定义这个系列:热带地区。参观者现在可以找到隐藏在郁郁葱葱的热带雨林中的家具作品,在蜿蜒的小路之间,而不是一个白色立方体的画廊环境。

A tropical showroom – After studying the client’s furniture collection, we think that the furniture pieces not only match with their original modern Scandinavian interiors, but they can also fit perfectly in other foreign environments, for example, an old historical ruin or even in a traditional Japanese house, thanks to their universal and timeless design. Hence, we would like to redefine the collection by presenting them within a new context: the tropics. The visitors can now find the furniture pieces hidden within in a lush rainforest, between winding pathways, rather than a white cube gallery setting.

创造性的外部因素–一个具有高度专业知识的特殊承包商通过对颜料、骨料大小和细节的深入讨论,在实现特色的原地水磨石地板方面发挥了关键作用。地板饰面在水平和垂直表面之间以平滑的曲线上升无缝过渡,取代了一般的踢脚线。无边角的设计有助于在空间中创造一种自由流动的感觉。

Creative externalities – A special contractor with high expertise took a crucial role to realize the characteristic in-situ terrazzo floor, through in-depth discussion on pigments, size of aggregates and details. The floor finish transitions seamlessly between the horizontal and the vertical surfaces with a smooth curvy rise, replacing generic skirting. The edgeless corners help create a free-flowing sensation in the space.

同样,为该项目专门制作的内置木制家具,以及覆盖睡眠区和现有窗户的长麻布窗帘,都是在当地青年人才的监督下制作的。其他人的这种干预就是我们所说的 “创造性的外部因素”,我们一直试图将其作为一个集体和合作的设计过程来追求,以实现比建筑师选择的目录中的产品更多的东西。

Likewise, the built-in wooden furniture specially crafted for the project, and the long linen curtain that covers the sleeping area and existing windows were produced under the supervision of local young talents. Such interventions by others are what we call “creative externalities”, which we always try to pursue as a collective and cooperative design process to achieve something more than a product from catalogs, selected by the architects.

共存–该项目偏离了今天可以被称为 “国际 “的东西–具有简单几何形状的现代产品。通过积极吸收其他当地因素,如当地设计师、工匠的创造力和充满活力的热带植物,该项目试图实现一个当地和全球现象可以共存的环境,在这两个系统之间创造一个新的共生关系的整体。

Coexistence – The project departed from what could be called “international” today – modern products with simple geometry. By actively involving other local factors, such as local designers, artisan’s creativity and vibrant tropical plants, the project seeks to achieve an environment where the locality and global phenomenon can coexist, creating a new symbiosis between these two systems as a whole.
