View Full Version : Saigon Architectual university, Vietnam
my design with group vs c+a ( japan)
the master plan of Saigon Architectual university and have prize 2nd ( not no.1), what do you think about it . very well.
The following info is provided by catdo.
Project: International competition. The New campus of Hochiminh city university of architecture. (Hochiminh city = Saigon)
Location: District 9, Hochiminh city. South Vietnam
Type of Project: Campus
Design parametter:
Total area: 36.500 m2 (m sqr)
Investment: 30 mil usd
Design fee : 1.2 mil usd
Design approach: UNITY. It mean "Link"
we would like to link:

You can see the whole building are connected by one curve line ( look like Nike logo huh ;-) )
each design studio have it own courtyard, and good view to the river
and the whole building pack one huge courtyard, which have a heart, Library.
The heart of the project.
The design constantly concerned with the tropical climate in VN.
and more , saigon architectual , i think this is Green architect style

Nicely modelled :clap:
I presume, from the trees, that it's modelled in SketchUp - but it looks like it's been rendered in a different program. What did you use?

yeah it looks great almost like a model, what render did you use? a very nice technique :)
The pics rendered by VRAY. We modeled it in sketchup.
Is there any room for VRAY film? I would like to upload the sort film of this project.

you might beable to upload it in the vray forum, but there might be a file size limit i m not sure, vray is a plugin for 3dsmax right?
yup Rambleon,3dmax plugin.
Here is the library of the campus
view from administration building
Right! we sketched in the Sketchup then export the 3ds and import 3d max and render with Vray for 3d
view from the river at the back side
in sketchup ofcouse ! we love it
side view
Congratz, good job !!! :cheers: :rock on:

COngratulations for your second post, great project!:not worth
Ahy site were we can see the other competition entries??
Ok, Swan-E. I'll help him (Tadao) in posting those projects following the guideline. He's in my team.
It is a great project with great renders and SketchUp output.
And I think I found a new name for Kevin that I will be using from now on – Swan–E! :P I like it.

Hey tadao,
Pretty sweet project, were there 10 guys working on it? How long did it take to complete?
Some plans and section with labels etc would be nice to get a greater understanding of the project. I have to rush so couldn’t take a good and proper look, but seems like you have a nice and well balanced mix of modernist arch with a splash of organic and a hint of high-tech freshness.
Anyway what I did dig even more is your crazy avatar (some anime image?)
Cheers,
DarynHosi

Hi Tadao,
I love the combination of the 2D site plan under the 3D modell. :rock on:
You can try posting the film as a zipped file.

:clap: Very nice presentation. :clap: The green really contrasts well in the presentation. I was looking at the picture of the model and saw the elevations in the back ground of the image. Could you post them? I would like to look at them closer. I was also wondering if your elevations were only sketchup output. Well done and beautifully presented.

You know in many ways I prefer the kind of rendered feel that you have achieved, as opposed to super realism. Sure super realism is great and often gets me all excited and stuff, but I often have an affinity to that slick, plastic, metal and glassy look that you have going on here. Know what I mean?
It is that ‘form Z’ kind of feel?
Anyway I always wonder how people (clients of architects) feel about that type of render approach as opposed to realism. I do know that some clients are intimidated by realism, but can the average guy out there appreciate the fore mentioned render style, or is it only architects and the like?
Anyway …

Very nice project. I like the overall green effect in the drawings, which seems to reflect the glass color. It is very tropical and would protect pedestrians walking thruough the campus well from sun and rain.
Very nice project. I want to teach in those buildings !!!!! :cheers:

If you were looking for a connection with the outside, and low impact buildings it looks like you get it!. The master plan is so clear and organized.
If your work got the 2nd place, I can´t imagine how the first prize might look. :clap:
and the whole building pack one huge courtyard, which have a heart, Library.
The heart of the project.
I think it is unfortunate that the library is the only thing that seems to sit quite uncomfortably with the rest of the scheme. I also want to know how have you made it the heart of the project because from the images you have shown, I really can't feel it being that at all.
The design constantly concerned with the tropical climate in VN.
I am really wondering HOW you have gone about dealing with the tropical climate in your design response. You only talked about it, but judging from the amount of glass boxes with hardly any eaves or overhangs, I really can't tell how 'tropical' this design is. Could you please give us a bit more information about that aspect of your design response?
Yes Rasti, you can teach here, it's a very big university :-)
It's a beautiful project Tadao, but i wondered why didn't you organize an international competition, such as creating a website for this competion, or anouncing on UIA website, because this is a big project. But i can understand a little, they just invite some of groups they know and they have relations with them, i'm wrong? So do the same the Japan, Korea, et China now, who always organize the international competions for a big project, you will have a good and beautiful project for nation.
Have a nice day
Very Pretty!
You're presentation is very nice, and the green makes it both refreshing and sleek.
Only a couple of comments-
One, it seems like the the courtyard is almost too large, or at least unprotected. A pedestrian walking from one side of campus to another is completely bare to the elements, whether it's heat or wet. You need to make better use of the buildings and overhangs to grab some shade. Also, the river doesn't seem celebrated enough. It seems like when classes are out, students should spill out onto a tighter urban courtyard that edges that river.
You do some great work. Keep it up and keep showing it off!

From what I see the overall footprint is taking alot of the real "green" out. With real "green" I mean grass ,foliage, trees. Are there any plans to replace those? Maybe with green roofs, indoor gardens or whatever?
Nice renderings, BTW.
thanks for the post.......I like your work, its very energetic and full of life....an inspiration to a student, but I have to agree with swank-e on the climate response issue. would like to see more..
this is one awesome project - thanks ;)

Tadao
It's a shame that I was unable to see this project previously. Yours is an excellent presentation as well as an enormous effort.
This is an example of large scale planning in a sweeping way, somewhat of an automobile (or a motorbike) scale. Your solution is very similar in rhythm to the projects proposed by our local architectural master Henry Klumb in the 1950's, for my alma mater, the Rio Piedras Campus of the University of Puerto Rico. The use of water within the site is certainly a challenge, the use of this surface as retaining pond for surface drainage always may bring with it the possibility of flooding.
The idea of adapting a particular architectural vocabulary to a warm and wet climate is also a daunting challenge. I agree with Kevin that glazing alone seems to be insufficient to address all the issues the layering of several 'skins' over all these volumes may represent. I feel that open screens and more shade would be dramatic and possibly less expensive to maintain. I declare myself guilty of pursuing striking formal solutions with glazed enclosed structures in my own practice, yet yearning for the time or the resources to explore other possibilities. A section-oriented approach to all building envelopes would have been an excellent second step, had you won the competition. I know that many of your excellent formal statements would have been enrichened in their translation to formal bid documents.
I wish to share my most heartfelt congratulations with you and your team.
Saludos
Juan

Just another example of the use of screens and glass, Klumb's library at the University of Puerto Rico, circa 1956, with no airconditioning at the time it was built.
Very nice project. I like the overall green effect in the drawings, which seems to reflect the glass color. It is very tropical and would protect pedestrians walking thruough the campus well from sun and rain.
hi franjayo!
my idea is" LINK" . university is unity . unity is link,
ok ok you understand my idea "It is very tropical and would protect pedestrians walking thruough the campus well from sun and rain."
i like that sentence
yet!! glass color is green because it style is Green Architectural
and look very CLEAR , very natural,..
juan !
yet i like your picture because it look contemporary arch., i like contemporary arch.
------------------------
cuban and vietnamese is whole brother
my idea is linking a ot of faculty , larger yard and library is heart of university
tadao,
another great project, i wish i had seen it earlier - congratulations on the prize!
the graphics are superb!
I've heard somebody mentioned v ray plugins for max..where can i get reach of that plugins?? Seems quite interesting to me...wanna have a hands on try on it....
owhs...i've never land a hand on Artlantis but i've heard that it is quite an excellent renderer...if it is compared to 3d max, what is the pro's and cont's actually???anyboby can give some comment on that???

Search the forum, you'll find your answers. Not in this thread though.

very nice. are you using vray for su?
they exported to 3ds model then render with vray for Max..
i wonder why they call the green of the glass is green architecture????

I guess for me the "green" is somewhat underdeveloped. Maybe it is just due to the massive scale of the project, but I wonder about all the green glass and the green color applied to the ground-plane which I assume is meant to indicate grass? Truthfully grass is not all that great when it comes to controlling stormwater run-off (a great concern for a project of this scale) or dissipating the heat-island effect. If you had a few images (and maybe you do and just didn't post them) that demonstrated the potential of different layers and types of "green" and how that might transition into a green facade I think the project would be more powerful. For example, what about native plants, undergrowth, trees, shrubs, etc? How could your facade take on more articulated green functionality besides just the color of the glass? Not saying that the entire project needs to be detailed but a few images that start to articulate and address these issues might start to give the project a more human scale and additional layers of development. Either way, your graphics are great, I find Vray for SU to be a great tool as well. Judging by the size of those boards your rendering times must have been astronomical!
