Project Summary
In Vietnam’s Mekong Delta, a new Low-impact greenfield university campus is being built. The project acknowledges the needs of both people and the environment. The design of this unique complex was informed by computer analyses of wind and activity flows. Rather than an imposing structure, the architecture merges seamlessly with the landscape.
