The Breeze House in Krong Siem Reap, Cambodia, designed by UAD Architects, is a tropical modern residence near the Angkor Archaeological Park. It integrates with the local climate and preexisting trees, emphasizing spatial experiences through terraces, water fountains, and walkways. These elements, combined with natural vegetation, create comfortable, private, and aesthetically pleasing outdoor spaces that allow residents to enjoy breezes, water sounds, and rain.

Built in the 1960s for Emperor Haile Selassie, the Koka Palace is a modernist lakeside retreat near Lake Koka, Ethiopia, possibly designed by Italian architect Arturo Mezzedimi. This private villa, reflecting Selassie’s vision of imperial modernity, features clean lines and subtle Ethiopian motifs. Closed to the public since the 1974 revolution, it remains neglected, overshadowed by Addis Ababa’s iconic buildings.
