架构师提供的文本描述。在过去的几年里，河内经历了快速的发展，导致了城市的扩张和许多废弃的住房区。这不仅是对环境和财政资源的浪费，也是造成社区安全和宜居性等诸多社会问题的原因。

Text description provided by the architects. Within the last few years, Hanoi has experienced rapid development, resulting in urban sprawl and many abandoned housing areas. This is not only the waste of environmental and financial resources, but also the causes of many social issues in term of neighborhood security and livability.

“在寻找一个新的办公室，也是一个陈列室的时候，我的加滕已经在新的城市公园中找到了一所空置的双人房。这间双人房不是一个封闭的、空调的标准办公室，它提供了一种很高的潜力，可以成为一种新型的生活工作空间“。

“When looking for a new office, also a showroom, Mein Garten has found a vacant twin house in Trung Hoa - Nhan Chinh New urban park. Instead of being a closed, air-conditioned standard office, this twin house offers a high potential to be come a new type of living – working space”.

从一座未完工的建筑开始，该项目的建筑师已经拆除了一些盖砖墙，以创造各种半开放的空间。内部和外部之间没有界限。到处都是植物：在花园里，在一楼半开放的空间里，在一楼，在屋顶上，在墙上…。带有植物和白色墙壁的整体色彩主题为办公室里的人们带来了一种轻松但富有创造性的氛围。工作空间不是唯一的办公桌，它可以在露台，旁边的水特色，或在阳台…。这是一个使人们更接近自然，更接近彼此，使他们更有效地工作的办公室。

Starting with an unfinished building, the architect of the project has taken out some of the cover brick walls to create various semi-open space. There is no boundary between the inside and the outside. Plants are every where: in the garden, in the semi-open space on the ground floor, first floor, on the roof, on the walls…  The overall color theme with plants and white-painted walls brings a relaxing but creative atmosphere for the people in the office. Working space is not a sole desk, it could be at the terrace, next to the water feature, or at the veranda… It is an office which bring people closer to nature, closer to each other, and make them work more effectively.

日复一日，时时刻刻，这些植物继续生长和变化，给办公室带来了新的面貌。因此，这间办公室并不仅仅是一个建成的物体。它是活生生的，就像一个有机体。

Day by day, season by season, the plants continue to grow and change, giving the office a new look. This office, therefore, is not just a built object. It is living, like an organism.
