Buildable space is sparce in Cambodia, not only because of population, but also the stability of soil in what is mostly a rural area that is occupied by farms utilizing the predominately wetlands. This project was conceived as an effort to preserve land and minimize the impact of urban sprawl.  The design of a vertical 'micro-city' in which all the essential elements and functions of living are accommodated in one building. Not only does this project contain necessities such as food, clothing and shelter, but business, education and health facilities.        In addition, there are gardens on each residential level, that provide a place for residents to grow and share their own food and flora.
