Trung Mai is a French-Vietnamese architect (HMONP) and urban designer who graduated with honors from ENSA Paris-Malaquais in Paris, France, and Leibniz Universität Hannover in Germany. After gaining experience in major French offices such as Atelier Jean Nouvel and Dominique Perrault, Trung founded Ad hoc Practice in 2020, in parallel with Hanoi ad hoc, as a research creation platform.

Trung is the first Vietnamese architect to win three times at Europan (in Spain, Italy, and France), the largest European urban biennial competition for young architects under 40, focusing on designing innovative housing and urban planning schemes for sites across Europe. Trung is also the recipient and nominee of numerous international awards and competitions, including Prince Claus Seed Award 2024, NL; IBA'27 - Internationale Bauausstellung 2027 in Germany; World Architectural Festival 2018; Architizer A+ award 2024,US; the Renovation of the Industrial Territory of DSK 500 International Competition in Siberia, Russia;; and the Association of Siamese Architects International Competition 2015, Thailand. Trung is a member of the French chamber of architecture. His works are exhibited in Architekturmuseum der TU München, and HKW Berlin ( Haus der kulturen der welt ). Trung has been a guest lecturer at Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology and Ecole Spécial d’Architecture, ENSA Paris Belleville. 

 

Trung has always been fascinated by the disorders and ad hoc nature of urban settings, viewing them as the intangible identity of the urban milieu, a universal approach to decolonization, and a crucial catalyst for significant urban change. His work focuses on devising urban renewal strategies for post-industrial contexts, integrating agriculture into urban environments, and exploring critical regionalism, resilience, reversibility, and architectural rearrangement within the context of the Anthropocene.
