Binh Duong School, Vietnam

Binh Duong School, Vietnam
Binh Duong, a new city 30 minutes away from Ho Chi Minh City, located in the middle of a flourishing forest with a wide variety of green and fruits, running rampant. This From the very first impression of the site,  the building is embeded into the site by delivering this Vietnam-oriented generous spirit of natural land into the school design, which will eventually have 800 students.

This fluidity concept is inspired by the endless raining of the typical tropical climate, where raining season lasts from May to November each year.

The building's built on 5300 square meters abundant land, consisting of a maximum height of five levels,  surrounded by the height of the forest around with pre cast concrete louvers and pattern walls enveloping the building. This continuous volume has a gentle slope surrounding the two courtyards as a geographical hill, lessens the aggressive height between the building and the peaceful site.

It has a semi-outside space, which shades from direct sunlight and acts like a natural ventilation system for the corridor space.

The school is designed as an S shape, connected to the ground at one end, curving around two courtyards with two different characteristics. Front yard is used for public space, serving for formal events such as meetings of the school. Backyard is more private, where students spend their personal time.Teacher rooms; gym, laboratory and library are located around the front yard, while common students’ classrooms are arranged around the back yard. The open space flows throughout the circulation to help teachers and students enjoy various activities of the two courtyards with rich natural surroundings.
