Description

The Chip Mong Noro Mall on Preah Norodom Boulevard in Phnom Penh is an example of climate-adaptive architecture in a bustling urban environment. The mall features green facades and cascading hanging greenery that improves the visual appeal while reducing heat absorption. Additionally, trees and bushes are placed on the roof and ledges across various floors, creating a lush urban oasis that contributes to improved air quality and cooling. The mall also integrates shade-providing structures, further reducing heat.

The desing shows how commercial spaces can integrate nature to improve both environmental performance and visitor experience in tropical urban centers.
