THE CONCEPTUAL IDEA

Cantor’s Giant Soft Shell Turtle, scientific name: Pelochelys cantorii,

is native to South East Asia. It was thought to be extinct, however a study of the Mekong River in Steung Treng reveals that this specie still live in the great river.

This lost and rediscovery is a reminder to persevere despite the oncoming torrent of tourist and preserve the local culture and identity.

THE SERVICES: 1. Canteen: to facilitates tourists who journey between Kratie and Steung Treng.

2. Community-tourism market: a space where the locals and tourists can interact and immerse in a cultural exchange through the economics process of buying and selling.

3. Covered market: a flexible indoor space where money can exchange hands in the local community AND also function as a public space where community’s celebration can take place.
