Tropical plants cover the balconies of Chicland hotel in Vietnam
Concrete balconies filled with tropical plants cover the Chicland hotel in Danang, Vietnam, designed by Vo Trong Nghia ? the Dezeen Awards 2019 architect of the year.
Overlooking the sea on the coastal road of Vo Nguyen Giap, every room of the 21-storey hotel has its own tropical garden.
Along with 129 bedrooms, the slim tower houses a coffee house, spa, bars and a restaurant and is topped by an infinity pool and sky bar.
Chicland's entrance sits directly off the promenade alongside the popular My Khe Beach.
Steps lead up through a small landscaped garden, past an outdoor seating area and into into the ground-floor cafe.
A series of bamboo arches merging with the bamboo posts that line the ceiling of the coffee bar.
The lobby is located above on the first floor and a bright, glazed space finished in stone panels and glass bricks. Dotted with seating areas overlook the café below from a small balcony.
Above this on the third floor is the restaurant, with glazed cut-outs in the floor that can be walked over and give down into the lobby.
All these public areas all face east with large windows looking out towards the beach.
Technical, storage and kitchen facilities are confined to the tower's northern end where a new development will soon be constructed.
Above these more public areas, the bedroom floors follow a standard floorplan, with smaller rooms sitting off a corridor opposite an elongated circulation core.
Larger apartment-style suites wrap around the tower's east...
