THE PROJECT aims to provide not just a Shelter but a Home a Community for the Factory Workers woking in and around Phnom Penh Special Economic Zone. Most of the Workers came from provinces near Phnom Penh. Since Phnom Penh is the Capital City, everythings all the way form Land, Houses, Renting are super expensive. Therefore, They were forced to live in Tiny Unsanitary Rented Room .
The situation of the Rented Rooms that the Wokers are currently living in. They usually share it with 4 people in order to save money. As their Status and their Living situation they often being Think-Less by the society. So, We want to offer them a Comfortness and bring back their Dignity.
the site is located in Khan kombol, third phase of PPsez, along Steund Prek tnot.
The choosen Site was selected by the PPSEZ themselves as they plan to built their own Affordable Housing for their Workers. With the site located on the Outskirt of Phnom Penh on the and have Enough Public Facilities, It’s perfect for the Project.

Rather than build a Highrise Apartment in which our people aren’t used to it’s Living conditons yet, We decided to choose another, a better Approach. Started by devidng Houses in to Small Apartment Blocks with each Blocks contains it’s own Green Space and Vegetation area. By doing so, It created a better Living condition with Good Airflow, Better Sunlight and Especailly increase the chances of Interaction between Residents that lead to Better Communication, Trust and built them a Sence of Ownership in which most of Housing Pocject nowaday lacked of.
We create a Main Road in the middle of the site and placed Derm Purr (Belief’s Tree) in between the Intersection. The Tree represents as the Protective Spirit in Khmer People’s Belief. So that way, It created a Warming Protective Feeling for the Residents and also a place for them to Pray as a Community.
Apartments are devided in to 3 Big Blocks with a Big Green Space in the middle. Create an Organic Roads in between Apartment to add more Beauty to the Surrounding Enviroment. The 3 Main Blocks has it own Parking to Help Reduce the Over Crowded. Each Parking have a Transportation Spot for Wokers to wait for ReurMork ( type of transportation ) to go to Work. No Vehicles are allowed inside, except Bike.

Slice the Apartment in to 4 blocks to create better Air flow and Sunlight.
Add a Courtyard in the middle. Put Staircases with Balconies on the West side of the Building to Prevent the Heat from entering the Units.
Spaces between the Apartment blocks allows Better View from one Apartment to another. Bridges are being added to connect those blocks together, allowing Interaction between Residents living in different block.
Free Land around the Apartment will be use for Tree Planting and Growing Vegetable.
Our Ambition in Designing this Project is, We wanted of Fullfill all the Basic Needs that every Housing Projects Needed in order to be considered Livable.

In order to archive that with included many Elements to the Design to bring the Residents together. Furthermore We also introduce the New Technlogy that gonna Revolutionize the whole Conventional Construction Industry known as 3D Printing to help cut down the cost of the Construction making the Project Affordable.
