Vinacomin Hanoi
The Vinacomin building complex in Hanoi, Vietnam, consists of two very slender towers standing close together. They reach a total height of 167 m each. The two high-rise buildings are complemented by a five-storey base building and a likewise five-storey underground car park.
Slim Residential Towers with Roof Garden
The first two storeys of the high-rise buildings are each 8.40 m high, the storeys above are each 4.20 m high. The skyscrapers are crowned by a Sky Garden, which provides a fascinating view of the surrounding urban landscape. The almost dematerialised glass facade of the Sky Garden is coated with a special sunscreen.
Above the main entrance on the ground floor is a large canopy made of steel and glass. Werner Sobek was responsible for structural and facade engineering on this project.
