Friends Futures Factory, Phnom Penh, Cambodia
Built 2017
Bringing co-working and public space to Phnom Penh
​
Friends Futures Factory is an exciting new concept in co-living and has created a new public space in the grounds around it. A town square is surrounded by 3 renovation projects Building A: Transforms a medical space into a cafe and training school for hospitality. Building B: Saw the removal of a gable wall to insert a small street which is filled with food truck stops creating a dynamic new street food market. Building C: Is the largest space within the old bicycle factory. Here a new concrete slab has been inserted to create a first floor that supports new social enterprises. The ground floor is a busy market place with everything on offer from hairdressing and nails to designer clothes and upcycled goods. In association with Friends International and COLE + Partners.
