A SUSTAINABLE TYPOLOGY COMBINING SOCIAL HOUSING AND TOURISM IN HO CHI MINH CITY, VIETNAM

The proposed building will become a new typology for Ho Chi Minh City and for Vietnam. The building will incorporate social housing for the local Vietnamese and hotel units weaved into them. These hotel units would generate money that would make possible paying the loan that was taken from construction of the building. The Vietnamese inhabitants would become hosts and would take a steady income and make a decent living for taking care of the guests. This goes along political reality because the government prefers everybody to take a little, instead of one group (rich) benefiting from the thriving economy.
