Overview

40 Years of Heritage —
Reimagined in Space

 

An interior renovation proposal inspired by "Time Slide — Dòng Chảy Thời Gian", retracing over 40 years of Vinataba Saigon's journey through spatial architecture and visual experience. A corporate experience centre where operations, hospitality, conference, and brand display converge in one cohesive whole.

Key Zones

Five Spaces,
One Experience

 

The design language draws from tobacco leaf veining, layered lighting, and a palette of metal and wood — creating spaces that feel modern yet deeply rooted in brand heritage.

01
Floor 1 · 141 m²
Reception Hall

V-shaped counter evoking the brand logo. Tobacco-leaf vein motifs on walls. Three-zone spatial division with product display panels and welcoming sofa arrangements.

02
Floor 1 · 185 m²
Internal Lobby

Silver as the dominant tone — modern, dynamic, and energising. Perforated metal panels shaped in the "S" of Sài Gòn create a distinctive pattern throughout.

03
Floor 3 · 660 m²
Multi-Function Room

Movable partitions divide the hall into multiple configurations. Sound and lighting systems designed for conferences, ceremonies, and large events.

04
Floor 3 · 145 m²
Exhibition Space

A heritage display corridor and check-in zone tracing the company's 40-year milestones through photography, artifacts, and layered lighting narrative.

05
Floor 3 · VIP
VIP Dining Room

Two options: a formal banquet room with brand-inspired ceiling and wall panels, or an intimate warmth-toned dining space with walnut wood, rose-gold metal, and soft spotlight layers.

Silver, Movement
& the "S" Symbol

 

The lobby's rear wall creates a layered-separation effect converging at a single focal point — expressing unity toward a common goal and the leadership of management. Perforated "S" metal panels define the visual identity of the space.

Heritage on Display —
40 Years of Story

 

A walk through time — exhibition panels, display niches, and check-in moments guide visitors through the company's milestones. Light and material tell the brand story before a word is spoken.

Two Moods,
One Distinction

 

Option A: a formal banquet room with brand-inspired ceiling motifs and warm pendant lighting. Option B: an intimate dining setting in walnut and rose-gold with soft accent light — both conveying prestige through refined material choices.

Facade Renovation

A New Face for
a Historic Brand

 

The facade proposal elevates the building's corporate identity — strengthening visual recognition, symbolic presence, and architectural modernity for one of Vietnam's most enduring industrial brands. Two design options explore contrasting expressions of the same heritage spirit.
