Constructing the Unique Curved Façade at The Marc 88 Hanoi
Inspired by the image of bamboo – a symbol of resilience and grace in Vietnamese culture – The Marc 88 showcases a unique façade blending straight and curved systems. Executed by BM Windows with precision, the vertical aluminum fins not only enhance the modern, elegant look but also infuse the architecture with cultural identity.
Inspired by the graceful yet resilient beauty of the Vietnamese bamboo, The Marc 88 Hanoi embodies a refined and distinctive architectural language, highlighted by its signature curved façade system — a focal point that showcases both creative spirit and advanced façade engineering craftsmanship.
Each curved panel is crafted with stringent technical precision in geometry, curvature, and joint detailing, requiring absolute accuracy in fabrication and installation to ensure both aesthetics and performance meet the project’s exacting façade standards.
The entire production and installation process is closely supervised by BM Windows at every stage to preserve the architectural integrity of the design while optimizing the façade’s technical performance and durability.
At The Marc 88, BM Windows implemented a specialized façade solution using a Unitized Curtain Wall system that combines three panel types: flat glass panels, curved glass panels, and vertical aluminum fins. This approach brings to life an architectural concept inspired by the symbolism of the Vietnamese bamboo — achieving a form that is both fluid and elegant, yet strong and enduring, perfectly reflecting the project’s design philosophy.
In particular, the stylized vertical aluminum fins were executed with high precision, not only contributing to a modern and sophisticated appearance but also infusing Vietnamese cultural identity into the architecture — where façade engineering meets artistry and heritage.
