There are spaces where we simply come and go, and there are places where we wish to linger. What makes the difference?
It is the concept called place attachment, an emotion established by a coordination of many elements in the space that come into contact with our five senses, and through these subtle touches, evokes within us our early memories, makes us feel like we ‘belong’, make us yearn to return to that certain place.
In the design of Di Linh Center, the element of earth is an emotional bridge that connects people with the building. From the curtain of tiled red bricks that cover the façade, to the stone pillars at the atrium that features the shades, the many layers of earth, to the open restaurant in the fifth floor, as green and fresh as a Di Linh hill. Our humans cannot feel belong in concrete boxes, for we are the children of nature.
