The One Heart Foundation has announced the winners of the Children’s Eco-Village Design Competition.
Attracting 45 submissions from 21 countries, the brief asked participants to propose an environmentally-friendly campus for orphaned and abandoned children, to be built in Soy, Kenya.
The competition was won by Malaysian entrant Poo Liang Edric Choo and his team from Malaysian firm O2DA.
His proposal across the eight-acre property will provide a home for 100 orphaned children, education for 500, skills training for the local community, an income-generating eco-farm, and 50 local jobs.

Choo的设计的灵感来自当地的乡土建筑,使用当地的建筑材料。评委称赞他的设计是美感和功能并存。
设计者的意图是证明建筑如何能够超越设计本身并且为人们的生活和生活环境做出积极的贡献。
Choo’s design embraces vernacular architecture and local materials, and was praised by the judges for its aesthetic beauty and functionality.
The designer’s intent was to demonstrate how architecture can go beyond good design, and positively contribute to people’s lives and living conditions.
Choo's design is a stunning concept that blends African influences, locally sourced materials and a certain warmth and nurturing sense of place – One Heart Foundation.
