Daesan Cambodia Development
Phnom Penh, Cambodia
This mixed-use residential development includes three (3) residential
towers with 1,000 apartment condominiums on an eight-story retail/parking
base adjacent to the Bassac River and overlooking downtown and the Tonle Sap
and Mekong Rivers. With the city's
population projected to double within the next 10 years, the project is part
of the Camko City office and residential area under development south of
Phnom Penh's historic Center City.
At 45-stories, the buildings are the tallest in Cambodia.
Building lobbies, retail uses and building support
functions are interwoven on the ground floor level of the building's base
with the above-grade parking garage spanning the building's entrance drive
to provide sheltered and shaded drop-offs at each building entrance.
The roof deck of the garage contains an outdoor
pool terrace with adjacent fitness center, locker rooms and sky
lobby/entertainment areas overlooking the terrace and surrounding cityscape.
Each of the apartment blocks are rotated to
provide panoramic views from all of the units.
The setback at the 38th
floor provides private roof terraces for the penthouses contained behind the
crown-like scrims on the four to six
topmost floors.
The project contains a total of 1,000 luxury
apartment and penthouse condominium units.
