Saigon's Modernist Architecture with Phạm Phú Vinh
Update: 2021-04-04
Description
This week, we return to one of our favorite topics: Vietnamese modernist architecture. 
Phạm Phú Vinh, an architecture student and expert on this style, joined us (1:16 ) to talk about the prevalence of mid-century modernist buildings in southern Vietnam, why this home-grown style is so overlooked by the public, what he thinks about Saigon's current architectural trends, and more.
We also chatted about Vinh's new book, 'Poetic Significance, Sài Gòn Mid-Century Modernist Architecture,' which is available on Amazon, Book Depository, and other e-commerce sites.
As always, we end with Bánh Mì Banter (41:00 ).
