“The Indigo” Driving Range
(@ SAPA Grand Golf Course)
Possessing a distinct undulating terrain, the practice facility is situated at the crest of a gently sloping hill toward the target greens. This sheltered training structure shares a consistent aesthetic language with the clubhouse and other auxiliary buildings within the overall golf course.
Ensuring the functionality of an open space in uncomfortable weather conditions is one of the key objectives. The generously extended roof sections beyond the building's footprint are provided widely around the driving range, especially over the teeing ground. This area features a cantilever extending 5.35 meters toward the tee-off direction, projecting 2.1 meters beyond the hitting line, offering a dry and cool space for the practice area in hot, humid weather, with prolonged rain and significant fluctuations between seasons and even within the day. This extended roof also acts as a glare shield, improving visibility along the practice ball trajectory, effectively aiding in the assessment of player's skills.
Supporting amenities, such as restrooms, lockers, storage, a shop, and a restaurant, are positioned on the opposite side, arranged as a dispersed complex with intentional gaps. This design serves as a windbreak, blocking reverse winds without causing turbulence at the teeing ground. Combined with the transparency of anti-reflective glass, the alternating open spaces beneath the roof emphasize the lightness of the structure atop the hill, resembling a concentrated indigo brushstroke stretching across the landscape. The architectural concept draws inspiration from the contrast of simple, dispersed rooftops against the vast, serene expanse of the lush hills of Vietnam's Northwest mountains.
The use of stainless steel reflects the refined aesthetic of premium golf clubs. Black columns and walls reflect the blue sky, blending into a dynamic and subtle indigo hue, which is the proposed color scheme for the stone flooring, practice mats, and the sleek, minimal standing seam roof. The spatial composition and modern atmosphere express local character while harmonizing with the surrounding landscape. The indigo color scheme, drawn from traditional local fabric dyeing techniques, also reflects the contemplative and poetic scenery of Vietnam’s Northwest Highlands.
Driving ranges are typically functional, utilitarian facilities that are often not prioritized in terms of architectural aesthetics. However, for a golf club to offer an experience that rivals the sophistication of a luxury resort, the investment in quality must be consistent and deliberate. From this perspective, Infinitive Architecture elevates the importance and aesthetics of this structure to be on par with the clubhouse, directly contributing to the brand’s overall value, prestige, and unique vision.
