Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam
Located in Nha Be, a suburban district to the south of Ho Chi Minh City, Aedas’ latest project named Celesta Rise is part of a larger master plan design that comprises five high-end 20-story residential developments, a row of 2-story street front units integrated with the towers and a prominent clubhouse facing the main road.
The residential towers feature 923 units ranging from 1-bedroom to 3-bedroom apartments, offering a variety of products catering to different living needs.
The project location allows for an optimal view of the future golf course, substantial green spaces on both sides, and low-rise developments at the back of the site.
The planning was developed in accordance with the linear geometry of the site with towers positioned to ensure unblocked views for all units.
The sophisticated design allows for a relaxing and soothing guest arrival experience that is graced with sunlight and ventilation to highlight the natural elements.
As a separation from the public realm, residents are greeted with an outdoor deck lined with lush greeneries that’s floating by the feature pool, which leads them into an airy reception to create a sense of arrival.
The ground floor doubles its functionality as a lift lobby and sales gallery, it also features an open courtyard and a kids’ playroom that stay true to its vision of providing wellness.
The design draws inspiration from “Celesta” which suggests the galaxy that is formed by a river of stars in the dark skies.
In order to recreate the whimsical and magical scene, LED point lighting is embedded throughout the screen of fins and frames.
The “rising” effect is represented by the illuminated “stars” gradient transitioning from small to large as they rise up to the crown.
“While promoting life around wellness, the integrated 2-story street front units within the towers promote vibrant conveniences to its residents. Aesthetically, its modern façade treatment harmonizes well with the surrounding neighborhood of low rises in terms of its elements, color, and scale,” says Steven Thor, Aedas Executive Director.
“Celesta Rise is designed as a comprehensive residential project that adheres to modern living needs that aims to meet the aspirations of the new middle class in Ho Chi Minh City.”
