Nguyen Hoang and Nguyen Manh Dung of HAS Architecture & HNA Architects have designed the 25-storey V-Tower or Victory Tower, which is a twin building located in the heart of Kontum City. Let’s learn about this content with Hoang Nhat Anh Architects!
The city lies above the Dakbla River and touches the border of three countries – Cambodia and Laos. The building is surrounded by a low-density residential area with plenty of open space. A minimalist simple glass facade wraps the entire facade that gives an appearance as if the building is shifting away from the compact street fronting the structure.
The skyscraper is considered to be the highest tower on the Middle Highland of Vietnam. The architecture firm has shared more details about this magnificent project with us. Read on:
Eye-Catching Facade
The first thing that catches the attention of any passerby is the distinctive facade of the building, which looks like the shape of V, which is why it gets the name – V-Tower.
“To exploit the Dakbla river fronting context of the site, we have introduced a minimalist simplicity glass façade, which reminds us very much about Mies’s HP tower. These allow the building to appear to be shifting away from the busy street fronting the building. This allows the building to create a unique profile against the skyline,” says Nguyen Hoang.
An Open and Symbolic Structure
The “V” (Victory – Chiến Thắng in Vietnamese) is the general symbol of simplicity, joy and hospitality.
What it Accommodates
The ground floor of the building consisted of Reception space, cafeteria, mechanical room, and other service functions. The 2-5 floor is F&B, conference center and other social facilities.
