The inadequate provision of open spaces in urban areas is one of the most recurrent challenges for the Hong Kong government. High-quality open public spaces can significantly increase a city’s attractiveness by encouraging business investment and improving living conditions.
The aim of the workshop is to design proposals to regenerate four underused public spaces in Hong Kong. An international team of leading architects and urban designers, representing both academia and practice, will work with a group of 8-10 students creating an urban design intervention to encourage the use of public space with innovative ideas.
