A CLOUD OF WHITE REEDS
24,000 SQM______________VI THANH, VIETNAM
IMMERSED INTO THE MEKONG LANDSCAPE
How to design an iconic hotel in the middle of a dynamic rurban community that is quickly discovering - and enthusiastically embracing - the modern urbanites’ passion for leisure, glam, and unique experiences?
DIC Star Hotel takes advantage of its fortuitous location along the riverfront to introduce a game-changing concept to the province of Hoa Giang: a modern leisure and lifestyle hub, combining 4 stars standard accommodation with a massive 1000 guests events hall and a variety of complementary commercial and F&B spaces.
The architectural treatment aims to provide guests with the compelling experience of living in a unique, suspended “white reeds cloud”, floating above the Mekong landscape – the same landscape that presents designers with characteristic elements ready to be reinterpreted in a contemporary language: tropical tree trunks, lotus ponds, mangroves and river plants.
