Touch the earth slightly!
Located on a typical slope of Dalat city, Dalat Memoirs resort includes 25 rooms with a total floor area of up to 1,100 m2, recreating an old space where people were always close with nature. Each space here is delicately arranged, connected to each other, connected to nature, and connected to Dalat, visitors can feel that every little corners here is for themselves.
The design idea "Touch te earth slightly" originates from a very special terrain with three different levels, a slope facing the South, and small lakes. With careful calculations, we have minimized impacts on terrain, vegetation and water surface systems by using steel structure solutions combined with wood and concrete, helping The building seems to be placed gently on the land. At the same time, combining the criteria of respect and harmony with nature, every room is arranged with a clear view to the South - towards Tuyen Lam Lake.
The 3-storey building is arranged as the main highlight of the project, with a music performance space typical of Dalat, and a space for displaying and trading local products. The blocks are linked together by a system of ramps - a very typical image of Dalat. Each accommodation space is designed with a sloping roof, making the most of beautiful views to the valley, lakeside, etc., not only ensuring privacy but also increasing the experience of the fresh and peaceful air of the region. plateau.
Besides, we also conveyed images of old Dalat into the design, which is the harmony between people and nature. The design maximizes the use of the existing landscape, combining the addition of some typical tree species such as three-needle pine, hydrangea, aravant, etc., so every small corner of the building is filled with flowers and grass. Interspersed between the room blocks are large pine trees, ensuring the characteristics of Da Lat and the privacy of each room. Taking advantage of natural ventilation instead of air conditioning, and a pine wood pellet heating system in keeping with the old Da Lat style, also help save energy effectively.
“Touch the earth slightly” is also a big technical challenge, which the architects overcame by building a water collection and treatment system at the lowest cote, combined with the use of water. natural lake water surface, build a 55 m long pipeline system and drain the water into the city's ditch system in the south so that the infrastructure ensures the project's operation and has the least impact on the landscape. Along with a number of other challenges such as limited investment budget and difficult material transportation terrain, the project is also designed to use pre-assembled components such as columns, steel beams, and slabs. floor, etc. ensuring to minimize construction costs, minimize arising problems, and optimize construction time, at the same time, the project is also combined with the use of popular local materials, such as stone and wood. pine and steel, etc. both ensuring the budget and ensuring sustainability and environmental friendliness.
