Textile Factory Office / Ho Khue Architects
Completed in 2023 in Da Nang, Vietnam, the Textile Factory Office by Ho Khue Architects redefines the concept of industrial workspaces. This project is part of a garment manufacturing facility located in one of Vietnam's most notable industrial areas, operating 24/7 and playing a crucial role in local employment. However, the design goes beyond mere functionality, addressing the often overlooked aspects of workplace quality and spatial conditions.
A Space That Inspires
Far from the typical industrial structure, the Textile Factory Office is envisioned as a space that inspires, connects people to nature, and nourishes both body and mind. Amidst the relentless rhythm of industrial production, the project offers a new approach that prioritizes user experience, creating an environment that not only meets functional needs but also uplifts the human spirit.
Design Inspired by Traditional Weaving Looms
The architectural design embraces a poetic and precise approach, resembling the wooden frame of a traditional weaving loom, thus honoring the craft's legacy. Utilizing a concrete beam-and-column structural system, solid concrete office volumes are distributed across this frame, appearing to float and move past each other in varied alignments. This creates an eye-catching visual experience that perfectly blends structural strength with architectural attractiveness.
A Dialogue Between Past and Future
The Textile Factory Office is an architectural dialogue between past and future, heritage and innovation. It redefines the workplace not merely as a site of labor but as a place of inspiration where architecture, nature, and human presence are interwoven into a meaningful and transformative experience. The project reflects the architect's vision for a new kind of industrial space—one that honors the craft, elevates daily life, and embraces the power of design to connect, heal, and inspire.
