Masterplanning
The Studio was in charge of drawing up a master plan for the protection of the landscape heritage of the village of QuyHoa on the outskirts of the city of QuyNhon. This Village is now a Hospital Village dedicated to welcoming families of leprosy patients. It includes a hundred modest houses, a monastery of Catholic nuns, a Church and a hospital. None of the inhabitants own a car and all traffic is on foot or on two wheels, which gives character and charm to this seaside village.
The project aims both to limit urban proliferation and to protect the landscape and character of the village of QuyHoa. This strategy also aims to make these boundaries between urban area and landscape area the future ‘Prime locations’ of the urban landscape, a good distance from the seaside.
