Hanoi Museum, Vietnam

Competition 2005 1st Prize Design Meinhard von Gerkan and Nikolaus Goetze with Klaus Lenz Co-operation with Inros Lackner AG Vietnamese partner practice Vietnam National Construction Consultants Corporation Client Hanoi Culture and Information Department Gross floor area 30,000 m Construction period 20072010 Within the square building, a central circular atrium links the entrance level with the three exhibition levels. The upwardly projecting stories cause in each of the layers below a shading, which is part of the energy efficiency concept. Since the interior spaces are protected from direct sunlight, also a conservative impact is created for the exhibits. For visitors, the effect is that, when looking out, they seem to be floating over the landscape. Visitors to the museum reach the upper levels via a spiral ramp. As the dominant feature, the ramp offers perspectives into the entrance hall and exhibition areas.
