Project : Jotun Factory- Head Office and cateeen
Location : Phase 2 Lot F3-1, Hiep Phuoc Industrial Park, Nha Be Disctrict, HCMC
Investor : Jotun Vietnam
Scale : 03 floors, 4.700m² GFA
Scope : Concept design to detail design (Architecture part)
Located in the whole Jotun paint factory cluster newly built in Nha Be district, the project is a distinctive nuance at the entrance gate. In the design of many modern office building in the industrial zone, we are often met with the conventional plan of a partially or fully glazed building facade. Undoubtedly, glass is an architectural element able to create stunning aesthetic effects, but to make a project unique, to create an extraordinary image with ordinary material, the architects are required to propose an architectural language that defines the essence of the building.
The building, located at the entrance of the site, provides on all of its four sides multiple points of view and vistas, creating uniformity and completeness. Energy-saving solutions are designed following environmental criteria, with shading on two sides of the building reducing solar reflection of neighboring others buildings at the front and other side. In addition, the project offers a striking view on the surrounding area with the use of glass materials, combined with the louver frame system with many different colors along the building facade, arranged in a balanced ratio, achieving architectural harmony.
