A huge congratulations to Som Vanserey Rothnak, Mol Nyta, Cheng Neahav, and Noy Vannak, whose beautiful design Within the Circle has been selected as the winning project! Their vision stood out for its elegance, simplicity, and thoughtful integration of the space, and we’re incredibly excited to work with them to bring this project to life!
“First of all, our team would like to express our biggest gratitude and excitement to have won the Connected Canopy competition, and we are very thankful to Creative Generation & Cambodian Living Arts for creating this opportunity for us to express our design ideas and contribute to and enhance the beauty of our community. We also appreciate all the hard work of all the finalists with all their outstanding works that made this competition even tougher. Lastly, we are truly excited to bring this design to life as the first design competition that we participated in and won. Finally, ‘We believe that anything is possible with hard work and unity.’” – Within the Circle team
We also want to give a heartfelt thank you to all of the finalist teams who poured their creativity, passion, and hard work into their designs. Each of them brought something truly special to this competition, and while only one project could win, every submission was inspiring in its own right. Their dedication to pushing the boundaries of design is something we celebrate.
This journey has been a collaborative and creative process for all involved, and we hope to continue supporting each team in their future endeavors. Stay tuned for more updates as we begin the next chapter with Within the Circle!
