Slumbered Sleep

The Vietnam Institute for Advanced Study in Mathematics
Site Location & Context
This building is located in the capital city of
Veitnam, Hanoi. It is surrounded by residential
urban development consisting of low rise
buildings. The Vietnam Institute for Advanced
Study in Mathematics is a restroative building
that was changed from its old architecture into
something more modern.
Because asymmetrical patterns are used in
all of the building’s views, paying homage to
the mathematical symbols, the structure is
well-formed and consistent in its architectural
language. By building a bridge between the
top level, the original U-shape is preserved
while being changed into a tighter block. All
functional sections are linked by a corridor
that opens up to a spacious interior courtyard,
ensuring a smooth flow of traffic without reducing
the building’s airy feel.
