Lumi Hanoi, CLD’s latest high-end residential project in the west of Hanoi, won three awards at PropertyGuru VPA 2023 in the design and development categories for its distinctive design, lush greenery, and comprehensive facilities that cater to the needs and aspirations of discerning homebuyers.

Lumi Hanoi is designed by renowned French architect Jean-François Milou of Studio Milou, who is also behind the designs of multiple award-winning projects such as the National Gallery of Singapore and the National Theatre Center in Saint Etienne, France. Recently, Studio Milou ranked first in the architectural design contest for the HCMC Opera House in Thu Thiem, Thu Duc City. Lumi Hanoi is Jean-François Milou’s first residential project in Vietnam.

Inspired by "lumière", the French word for light, Lumi Hanoi is conceptualized to embody the radiance and warmth of the sun, the source of life, and a symbol of positivity.

This "city of lights" concept underpins the different parts that make up this project: a sustainable community that harmonizes the well-being of its residents, the beauty of nature, and the power of technology to become a beacon of Hanoi’s bright future.

The architecture and landscape of Lumi Hanoi follow this light inspiration, with the façade of the different towers thoughtfully curated to break the monotony and provide visual delight, while the landscape is themed after celestial elements such as the sun, aurora, and stella.

Lumi Hanoi consists of about 4,000 units across nine towers that range from 29 to 35 storeys. The project will be developed in phases and will offer a wide selection of unit types, ranging from 42 square meters (sq m) for a one-bedroom unit to 135 sq m for a four-bedroom unit. There are also duplex units and penthouses ranging from 115 sq m to 410 sq m in size.
