SOM Awarded Commission for Eco-Urban Community in Danang, Vietnam

On May 5,  2011 (London, UK) Skidmore, Owings & Merrill, LLP (SOM) was awarded the Master Plan commission for Golden Hills, and Eco-Urban Community in Danang, Vietnam.  SOM’s preliminary plan for a sustainable residential community at the edge of the city looks to set a new benchmark for ecologically-sensitive development in Vietnam.  SOM is now working closely with the city planning authorities to finalise the project’s design and ensure its delivery.  This is SOM’s third recent project ‘win’ in the country and follows the firm’s recent successes of Green Tech City in Hanoi and FPT City also in Danang.
