The city of Danang is welcoming a new Hilton Hotel, the aim is to merge business and resort.The banquet room space has to be flexible, where it can welcome weddings, conferences and other events.

BANQUET & PREFUNCTION PLAN

Hilton Danang room had to be recognizable as beeing Hilton room, while keeping the identity of vietnam.Through touch as the green ceyladon color, the vietnamese ventilation tiles patern or the embroidery at the back of the bed, vietnamese influence have been brought, without giving a too rustic or stereotipical idea of vietnam.

The swimming pool concept was to recreate topography line following the Danang seabed. To give this impression, the idea was for the materials surronding the pool (wood, grass, concrete...) to be carried within the pool with mosaic tiles using the same tones as the material.The furniture also usese this idea of topogragy lines with their shape.

At the entrance of Hansar main hotel in Bangkok, , a new area was required. The space, aiming to be a shop, had to be well integrated to bring more value to the lobby. The concept was to create a space which looked like a library, thanks to a bookcase and a counter used at the same time as retails space and as a showcases.

During 6 months I have been working for Louis Vuitton architecture departement, on the Japenese zone. This project located in Yokohama, was a small shop in a departement store. The problematic was to create a luxury and spacius area, in a very small surface. But also to conserve the brand identity while adapting to the japanese culture.

The museum was developed in the inferior floors, inside one of the tanks, with an outside exhibition area on the last floor.

A new master plan had to be created in the center of city. The problematic was to think about the impact of a new master plan on the neighborhood but also at the scale of the city. The concept was to conserve the same architecture as in popular neighborhood, with narrow buildings, using modern architecture. A parc was also created next to the golden horn, to create a green space inside the city.
