The idea is a park with a large area of greenery and water covered. Visual language would be morden design and materials combined with local plant landscape, forming a southen characteristic spatial, remind people of the original landscape of Saigon.

As Vietnamese loves food, Along with leisure cultural areas, junk food stalls and local handmade retails would attract city dwellers and tourists more than anything. Pedestrian bridge is also proposed to connect two parts of the park over Nguyen Thi Nghia Road, connecting pedestrians from Pham Ngu Lao street to Quach Thi Trang roundabout - Ben Thanh Market.

The gymnasyum appears to be gentle and healthy by both designed indoor space and form. Huge openings throughout the building circulate air to the surroundings.

Significant plantings combined with the outdoor stadium become an ideal environ-ment for the sports.

The use of bricks and perforated sheets of metal makes gymnasium look friendly than other modern materials like aluminum and stained glass panels. If this building were human, he would have more a tone asian body rather than a muscular one.

Unlike other building design projects implemented, this project is more about a calculation exercises which requires more work on standards in density, area, number of floors and coefficient used. On distribution of land, in addition to the floor and the area is reasonably calculated, the scheme requires solutions to the most beneficial toward climate (reduced sun thermal, air circulation designed based on downwind) and aesthetic (outlook)

The story is set in the period of the industrial revolution in England.

A little girl in a rural middle-class families have a special relation-ship with nature. She unfortunately turned blind but her communication with the natural world remains.

Industrial Revolution turned the countryside into urban, her inter-action and feelings became turbu-lence. She’s lost. On a windy night of summer, she was awakened by the sounds from the old days, un-consciously, she run and find the way to the Secret Garden.

The designs in the course are based on the imaginations of the process of interacting with the se-cret garden from the story above.

I remember daydreams of being movie star.I remember daydreams of committing suicide and of the letter I would leave behind.I remember day dreams of being a dancer and being able to leap higher than anyone thought was humanly possible.I remember daydreams of being a singer all alone on a big stage with no scenery, just one spotlight on me, singing my heart out, and moving my audience to total tears of love and affection.

The garden is always in Autumn with in all senses. The design are a combinations of studies about light, tactile, sound, smell. It’s damp, soft, mossy and fluffy with the smell of moist air and rooting leaves. The secret garden is hydrated through a pitcher plan as a water collector.
