Lu Ban Hap. A Cambodian architect
Guest editor, texts and images: Moritz Henning
Bauwelt 38/2015
After several visits to Lu Ban Hap and his wife in France, I felt the need to share my experiences with Cambodia’s second educated architect. The German architecture magazine Bauwelt offered me to write about the architect’s work in Cambodia from 1960 to 1975. An article on the architect and a text on his most famous building form the thematic section of the issue:
