Cambodia Peace Museum

Studio Tectonic developed an extensive conceptual design and overall institutional framework for the newly-forming Cambodia Peace Museum. This institution is being developed by the Centre for Peace and Conflict Studies, based in Siem Reap, Cambodia – an institution that is directly involved in peace work throughout the multi-national region. The museum serves to bring Cambodia’s broader past and present into focus for the purpose of building national stability, pride and awareness…for Cambodians and the greater ASEAN community.
