YGH was selected to design a new state-of-the-art campus for the American University of Phnom Penh, Cambodia. The first phase in this project is a five-story university building designed to accommodate a rapidly expanding student population. The campus will include a library and resource center, computer and science laboratories, spaces for individual and group study and learning, as well as indoor and outdoor dining and meeting areas and a 250-seat auditorium. Flexible learning environments will allow both traditional lecture-style classes as well as small group discussion and project work. The YGH design team worked with a local Phnom Penh architecture firm on the campus design.
