Ho Khue Architects (ALPES) is honored that the Guột Garden Clubhouse project—a small community facility in the Eco Central Park urban area developed by the founder of Ecopark—has just won the international DNA Paris Design Awards 2026 (in the Public Architecture category). The awards ceremony will take place on November 6th of this year in Paris, France.
The core concept of the project is based on technical innovation and the tactile quality of materials. By utilizing a complex steel frame to support a traditional Guột roof that had otherwise been forgotten, the contrast between the silvery-gray thatched roof and the raw, rustic concrete affirms the authenticity of the materials within a contemporary context, creating a significant international mark for a small-scale project.
