Located in Sneung Village in Battambang, the WaterHall, a twin structure composed of a circular rainwater collection funnel that doubles as a community hall, and an adjacent building that houses a pump and a filter system. The WaterHall’s funnel roof collects water during the rainy months, and rain and lake water are filtered through the chemical cleansing plant that removes bacteria, viruses and heavy metal ions. The project team studied and adopted the local vernacular and crafts with the help of community members, and the simple structure was built by local craftspeople. The WaterHall has benefited 110 families, solved the villagers’ severe drought problems.
