End of 2023, XMA & LADD have won the 1st prize in the invited competition for a Retail and Office Building in Thanh Hoa Province, Viet Nam.
Aiming for maximized occupancy with a restricted budget, the project takes an environmental approach and creates a diagonal garden on the west facade to reduce the radiation and create more views toward the Mã River Those green balconies also become a green link for users to interact between each floor of the building.
The project applies integrated design technologies such as energy calculation algorithms, and visual environmental parameters during the design process, and AI tools to quickly illustrate ideas. The project is under concept design development and construction aim to start in 2024
