Daun Penh district now is used to be French district
in 1886 in French colonialism. So there are lot of
French’s buildings in the district. After the French
colonialism, now those great building became the
heritage buildings.

For the 2013 architecture competition is about to
design a new arts gallery next to the old police
station. We see the whole district as a without
wall museum and all the heritage buildings in it
as the heritage objects or art works that have
been exhibited in the museum. So we are about
to design a new building as an art work, or
building like a sculpture which has been shown
in the museum too.

For the idea of new building shape is to complete
the old building shape to become a new shape.
It is like we design another part of old building.
The new building facade that is opposite to the
old building facade, we used the glass to copy the
facade of the old building to new building facade.
To protect the heat of sun in the morning, we chose
the double glass which provide the natural light but
not heat. At the end of the new building, we take
to roof down to the land, because we want to
connect the new building to the site and also the
old one.

The open space in the middle of both buildings
is just like the present now and connect the
relationship between past and future.
It can be use to be by design student who has
won the public use competition the install their
design work and show it the public people.
