  4. 2. Another Modernism? Form, Content and Meanings of the New Housing Architecture of Hanoi

    Author : Hoai Anh Tran; Institutionen för arkitektur och byggd miljö; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Vietnam; tradition; The West; Third World; identity; modernity; modernisation; modernism; modern architecture; house design; housing architecture; Architecture; Hanoi; interior design; Arkitektur; inredningsarkitektur;

    Abstract : The study deals with the issue of how to understand and assess modern architecture in a non-Western context. Is there a non-Western modern architecture in its own right and with meanings connected to the local context or is it mere copy of Western modern architecture? At the primary level the study discusses the meanings and directions of contemporary architecture in a modernising society such as Vietnam, using a number of new private houses of Hanoi as case studies.
