Project Details
One of the largest township developments in Vietnam
In urban design, computer simulation was used for the first time to create the desired wind flow and sunshading at city level. The shape, geometry and orientation of buildings were modified to reduce wind shadows while maximising shade for different seasons. Water sensitive designs at town level were incorporated to protect the water quality through filtration and retention, treating waste water before discharging back to the environment and utilising storage points to reduce run-off and peak flows to mitigate floods.
