Vietnam is at the peak of a new wave of industrialization. The path toward its robust future is one of diversified opportunities, where the journey is as rewarding as the eventual destination. The Long An province, which borders the bustling Ho Chi Minh City, now lies in the pathway toward progress. Our assessment of this unique setting leads us to envision a much different opportunity than the status quo approaches of classic industrialization. Without question, the setting loudly broadcasts that the solutions for development here must reap the benefits of the peaceful atmosphere, clear skies, and beautiful waterways. A clear vision of regional potential can be influenced or inspired by examining successful global precedents. In the strategic assignment of land-use designations and the creation of appropriate building and lotting prototypes, our research leads us to consider several global benchmarks. The challenge for the masterplanning team is unique in this application: an engineered solution of efficient building deployment will reduce the long-term valuation and miss the opportunities that the site has shown us. Long An Eco Centre sets a new paradigm that elevates the quality of life on an inclusive platform respectful of the Spirit of Place.
