Da Nang, Vietnam
Designed by Vo Trong Nghia, the Chicland Hotel is located in one of the most famous tourist cities in Vietnam.
The Chicland Hotel has recently been awarded a 2022 International Architecture Awards Honorable Mention by The Chicago Athenaeum: Museum of Architecture and Design and The European Centre for Architecture Art Design and Urban Studies.
The main city road Vo Nguyen Giap lays along 30km coastline, which has a beautiful sea view, bright sunlight, cool win and fresh air.
This project is located on Vo Nguyen Giap road and faces directly to My Khe Beach, about 100m to the sea.
With a site area at 699 sqm, it is an ideal position for the hospitality business.
Chicland Hotel is designed to meet the business requirements of the client but doesn’t confine architecture itself to the normal commercial style.
All vertical technical parts are moved to the North area to assure a clear sight of view (in the near future, there’s an upcoming a high rise building next to our project on the north).
Other vertical facades are covered by a sudden inspirational system of alternate tree pots which is integrated into balconies or sliding part of hotel rooms.
That greenery system has a simple design and is easy to operate and maintain.
The total floor area of the hotel is 11,895 sqm, it has 129 rooms from standard to apartment type on 21 stories with standard facilities such as: garage basement, technical & service basement, lobby area, coffee house, spa and sky bar.
Thanks to the greenery facade, all rooms have a nice view whether facing the sea or the adjacent land.
Besides of high aesthetic, the greenery system also creates a microclimate for the building and makes interior space cooler.
The plants used in the project are tropical plants and are suitable to marine climate such as cymbidium hybrid, tournefortia argentea, ficus superba, bougainvillea, pluchea indicam, etc.
The wall is made of concrete as the main material and covered by a tropical greenery system.
That green facade inspirits for interior design. Furniture and interior materials are made from local or natural materials: wood, stone, bamboo, and rattan.
The guest room is designed with an open restroom connected to the bedroom.
All guest rooms use a maximum glass door system to provide natural light, view and benefit from a greenery facade.
Chicland Hotel is a new icon of green building for the city and brings a new angle of architecture design.
