LEE HOUSE
The client seeks to develop a multi-storey residential house in the heart of Phnom Penh. Despite the ideal locations, the site has many constraints that require attention and critical resolution for the construction to be feasible. The access to the site has a narrow opening of 1.3m wide hence limiting the construction methods for the development. Through discussion, the engineers advised sticking to the conventional construction method of using reinforced concrete structures.
The back of the house has a passageway hovering 2.1m above ground that is not demolishable as it is shared amongst the neighbours. Apart from that, the house is going to be constructed between 2 old houses of varying heights.
Through meetings with the clients, they shared their needs for the house and essential spaces for the house which mainly focuses on convenient as the client and his wife are ageing and they wished to stay here for a long time with their children.
