PROJECT DETAILS
A redesign of a colonial era Government building in Siam Reap, the FCC Hotel has 55 rooms and suites, all sympathetic to the original building whilst adding Gary’s signature contemporary ethos to it’s finish. The site is strategically located next to the Royal Palace and overlooking the river which winds through Siem Reap. Initially, a derelict police station from the period of French colonial occupation was extensively altered and extended (very little beyond the façade was maintained). A series of interventions in the landscape were made to attempt to draw spaces together including reflecting pools, screening walls and strategic lighting. Custom furniture was designed by GFAB and fabricated in neighbouring Vietnam. Finished in stages 2006-2013
