在快速的城市化进程中，越南的城市已经远远偏离了其作为无垠的热带森林的起源。绿色的缺失造成了各种社会问题，如因摩托车过多造成的空气污染、空气污染、洪水和热岛效应。在这种情况下，城市地区的新生代正在失去与自然的联系。此外，随着国家转向以制造业为基础的经济，国家正面临着变化，对环境造成了影响。干旱、洪水和盐碱化的增加危及到了粮食供应。
Under rapid urbanization, cities in Vietnam have diverged far from their origins as sprawling tropical forests. The lack of green causes various social problems such as air pollution due to the over-abundance of motorbikes, air pollution, flood, and the heat island effect. In this context, new generations in urban areas are losing their connection with nature. Moreover, the country is facing changes as it moves to a manufacturing-based economy, taking its toll on the environment. Increased droughts, floods, and salinization jeopardize food supplies.
“城市耕作办公室”，是改变这种状况的努力。该项目的目的是将绿色空间还给城市，并促进安全食品生产。该办公室项目位于胡志明市的一个新开发区域，展示了垂直城市耕作的可能性。它的外墙由悬挂着各种当地植被的花盆箱组成，使它们能够获得充足的阳光。这种绿色的方法将提供安全的食物和舒适的环境，并将能源消耗降到最低，为城市的可持续发展的未来做出贡献。
“Urban Farming Office”, is an effort to change this situation. The aim of the project is to return green space to the city and promote safe food production. Located in a newly developed area in Ho Chi Minh City, the office project demonstrates the possibility of vertical urban farming. Its facade consists of hung planter boxes with various local vegetation, allowing them to obtain sufficient sunlight. This green approach will provide safe food and a comfortable environment with minimum energy consumption, contributing to the sustainable future of the city.
环境策略–“垂直农场 “为整个建筑创造了一个舒适的微气候。结合玻璃，植被可以过滤直射阳光并净化空气。它用储存的雨水进行灌溉，同时蒸发冷却空气。相反，北面的墙是相对坚固的，以便将来扩展，有小的开口以加强交叉通风。它是由双层砖墙制成的，里面有一个空气层，具有更好的绝缘性能。所有这些都有助于减少空调的使用。
Environmental strategies – The “vertical farm” creates a comfortable microclimate throughout the building. Combined with glazing, the vegetation filters direct sunlight and purifies the air. It is irrigated with stored rainwater while evaporation cools the air. Conversely, the northern wall is relatively solid for future extension, with small openings to enhance cross ventilation. It is made of a double-layered brick wall with an air layer inside for better insulation properties. All of these contributes to reducing the use of air conditioner.
耕作系统–“垂直农场 “是为植被设计的，具有简单的施工方法–它包括一个混凝土结构、钢支架和悬挂在那里的模块化花盆箱。花盆箱是可以更换的，因此它们可以根据植物的高度和生长状况灵活地排列，提供充足的阳光。与屋顶花园和地面一起，该系统为场地面积提供了高达190%的绿化率，相当于1.1吨的收获。各种当地可食用的植物，如蔬菜、草药和果树，都被选中，以促进该地区的生物多样性。它们以有机处理的方法进行维护。
Farming system – The “vertical farm” is designed for vegetation with a simple construction method- it consists of a concrete structure, steel supports, and modularized planter boxes hung there. Planter boxes are replaceable, therefore they can be flexibly arranged in accordance with the height and growing condition of plants, providing sufficient sunlight. Together with a roof garden and ground, the system provides up to 190% of the green ratio to the site area, which is equivalent to 1.1 tons of harvest. Various local edible plants, such as vegetables, herbs, and fruit trees, are selected to contribute to the biodiversity of the region. They are maintained with an organic treatment method.
