LA MEMORIA HOTEL
Ta'd.atelier
Located at the intersection of District 1 which is an energetic commercial center and District 5 - commonly known as an ancient and oriental one, the entrance looks like a narrow alley at the first glance. Walking through that long and dark path is the courtyard which is in a mixture of old - new, private - public features creating a rare complex scenario that evokes a lot of inspiration for the design team.
位於充滿活力的商業中心1區和5區：通常被稱為古代和東方區的交匯處，入口乍一看就像一條狹窄的小巷。走過那條漫長而黑暗的道路是四合院，它融合了舊的，新的，私人的公共特徵，創造了一種罕見的複雜場景，為設計團隊帶來了很多靈感。
The existing building belongs to Modern South Vietnam Architecture which was built to accommodate immediate post-war needs. Having a lifespan of 30-40 years, buildings in that period now begin degrading and shifting to maintenance and functional change phase to suit the modern context.
現有建築屬於現代越南南方建築，是為滿足戰後即時需求而建造的。該時期的建築物使用壽命為30至40年，現在開始退化並轉移到維護和功能更改階段，以適應現代環境。
In addition to the distinctive charm of architecture, they are undergoing many operating conversions - from lacquer workshop, kindergarten and now hotel - and suffering a lot of unavoidable expansion.
除了獨特的建築魅力之外，他們還經歷了許多運營轉換：從漆器間，幼兒園到現在的酒店，都在遭受著不可避免的擴張。
The building’s current condition was carefully examined in order to retain almost the original architecture, and remove only unnecessary extras. Light-weight architecture and landscaping design are mostly focused on this project, in order to string the whole series of the site’s elements into a smooth, seamless "thread" that constantly changes from the soft cover around the atrium to the steel staircase and outdoor swimming pool.
我們仔細檢查了建築物的當前狀況，以保留幾乎原始的建築，並僅去除不必要的附加物。輕型建築和環境美化設計主要集中在此項目上，以將場地的整個系列元素串成平滑，無縫的“線”，該線從中庭周圍的軟覆蓋層到鋼製樓梯和戶外游泳池。
By gently behaving towards a building with many values of that epoch, light structures are proposed, based on the existing one, forming a new "coat" to overlap on the current architecture.
通過對具有該時期的許多值的建築物進行描寫，在現有結構的基礎上提出了輕型結構，從而形成了新的“塗層”以重疊在當前建築上。
