What's On

After a few weeks break over the exam period, we are starting the new season with a popular itinerary:

The tours will visit three locations:

• The well-known '100 Houses' development, designed by Vann Molyvann and commissioned in the 1965 by the National Bank of Cambodia for its staff; these 100 or so identical houses are a thoughtful reinterpretation of the traditional Khmer house - some are still (just) in their original state.

• Doctor's House: A remarkable villa of the same period which has an exuberant, three-storey high entrance hall which dominates the design; now a Health Centre.

• Split House: This family villa - a rich blend of materials, form, light and air which creates a delightful residence - seems to have been built to divide into two, for reasons we have not yet determined.

.......................................................................

There will be morning and afternoon tours, guided by architecture students Suon Ratana and Sim Sitho.

Morning tour: Start at 8.30am, end around 11.30am

Afternoon tour: Start at 2.30pm, end around 5.30pm
