Located in the historic centre of Ho Chi Minh City, this master-plan realises the wholesale revitalisation of the city's administrative heart.
The city block, as it exists, contains the iconic "Hotel De Ville" alongside another notable neoclassical building. The remaining accommodation is an accumulation of unremarkable & stylistically incoherent structures.
The master-plan reconciles the new accommodation with the restoration of the retained buildings, by clearing the site of clutter & carefully locating the new architectural elements ,creating new vistas & landscaped spaces, forging a new civic hub for Ho Chi Minh City.
