WHO AM I ?
CORE SKILLS: ARCHITECTURAL & SOCIAL
Hi, my name is Amy, I was born in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.
+ Effective communication skill: not only in public speaking, presenting ideas but also in corporating teamwork, specially communicating in English.
Since a very young age, I have shown my compassion to architect, trying to figuredout all the house plans in the magazines, playing with legos and blocks all the time. Eventhough my family has a music tradition and me myself has learnt to play piano since I was 6 years old, I still make my own decision to go with architect. Both music and architect that made who I am now. Later in life, I found out my ability to learn and to manage. The desire to learn more and more keep me going while I find my interest in other careers like business and marketing but that doesn’t make me stray away from architect. In all, it created another career path in the design industry that I want to pursue. I am a social one, a team player. The feeling being a part of something make me stronger and the same goes the other way, that I will make ‘something’ stronger. [ page 2/25 ]

ARCHITECTURAL COMPOSITION 1 The first one in the series of 3 Compisition Project wiith the target to create a unique facade bases on a rectangle 40x17cm plane. I’ve used the layer-technique with different materials to shape a viewport, looking furthur, deeper inside. I named this project “The gate into space”, like the feeling we’re looking into the galaxy with thousands of questions and wonders.

Coming after the first Composition, this 2nd one is about creating a sculpture which can be seen logically from different angles. I then use the pure white, angular shapes to generate the strong, sharp feeling but pure at the same time. A ‘non-transparent crystal’ on a reflective water surface.
ARCHITECTURAL COMPOSITION 2

ARCHITECTURAL COMPOSITION 3
The final Composition project purpose is to create multi-spaces and view point within a boundary of a small box 40x17x26cm. Between the two standing wall, I chose to seperate into spaces by levels, looking at one old tree. “The Great Shadow”, that’s how it’s called.

URBAN SCULPTURE Going along with Urban Planing Project (page 9), this sculpture is placed in the center waterfront of a city cultural complex. Metal frames, glasses, wood and concretes are used to shape this building-size sculpture. Those are also basic construction materials we use to build this world. By doing this, I want to reflect the life behind the frames, the life we’re having, reflecting the surounding cityscape into it. This city never stop growing, never stop transforming to become something new stronger and bigger.

Thu Thiem also has a strategic location, a gate from the north to go into the city center, now ďŹ lled with local palm trees and swams all over the area. With those above characters, Thu Thiem station is planned to be a large Interchange Hub, switching between National Highspeed Railway going South-North of Vietnam in the future; short monorail line to transfer citizens in and out to Long Thanh International airport; Metro Line 2 connecting Thu Thiem straight to Ben Thanh market and beside, Buses from many directions and surrounding residences.

FUTURARC PRIZE 2O15 FILTER BIO-FENCES Project aims to renovate the canals’ bank into profitable filter bio-fences, revitalize local creatures, improving environment quality. The designed fences were catergorized into 4 kinds: water module, tree module, gabbage module and floating garden. Those modules help purify canal polluted water using local plant’s root, speed up waterflow to wash away dirty trash, trash collectors are also set up for easy cleaning the canal and one last ability is to store water when flooded then discharge when the water level is low.

APARTMENT 139 RENOVATION
Late 2O16, after a sudden moving, the owner luckily found this old apartment inside a peaceful, quiet neighborhood right in the center of district 3. The residence is nearly 40 years old, surrounding families have lived here since the begining, much of the facilitity has gone down. Outside atmosphere is great for the living but life’s quality inside each apartment decreased a lot. The challenges appeared. Moving to this new place, the total area is just half the size of the old apartment with only 2 bedrooms (64sqm compare to 124sqm). The equation is formed of how to provide comfortable living space to all the 4 members of the owner family and still stores enough belongings from the old apartment.

Not only from the apartment itself but the new design also bring a new face to the facade of the building, show another way to balance between safety & aesthetic. [ page 23/25 ]
