Abstract

In this paper, I will focus on the collaborative work of three Japanese architects Gyoji Banshoya, Nobuo Goto and Setsuo Okada under the supervision of Vann Molyvann, who realized the famous Olympic Stadium in 1960's. It is well known that the site plan of the stadium was designed as a modern model of Angkor Wat, while they proposed the "Karagasa Structure" for the Gymnasium. Corresponding the demand of housing in the new city of Sihanoukville, Goto and Okada suggested a modern Khmer housing along with a marketplace. Certainly, this type of housing area was supposed to be realized in some area described in the 1962 district plan to which Banshoya contributed. It can be said that Banshoya contributed to the elaboration of the district plan, and Goto lead the planning of housing areas to compliment the district plan. This is the essential relationship between Banshoya and Goto's contributions.
