#Play is for the people

A year ago I have joined 2018/2019 Design Trust Futures Studio with the theme “Play is for the people” to challenge the future design of mico-parks in Hong Kong. It is a pilot programme to give a more positive energy to the community and an open mindset to impact our everyday living space in Hong Kong. The four pilot sites include: Portland Street Rest Garden, Sitting-Out Area under Hill Road Flyover, Yi Pei Square Playground and Hamilton Street Rest Garden which designed by my team and I.

Venue:Warehouses on West, shop B G/F, Samtoh Building, No. 384A, Queen’s Road West, Sai Ying Pun, Hong Kong ( MTR B1 Exit)
Exhibition opening timeline: 17th Jan – 29th Jan 2019 ( Free admission )

The design journey with Leisure and Culture Services Department, Architectural Services Design, and all the design workshop and field trips with Design Trust Members were unbelievable and fun. We have now documented our design process through drawings, models and videos that are in an exhibition which is now open. Please drop by and exhibition details are at below. In the meantime, let me share with you all some snapshots of the exhibition launch.

The exhibition showcase the outcomes of the critical design phase, as well as 1:1 prototypes and scaled models and video documentation. A series of programme and workshop are open to the public during the exhibition period.
