"Hong Kong is well known for its high-rises, off scale infrastructures and quest towards novelty, performance and so-called iconic objects. Its urban and architectural logic used to be always higher, always denser, extremely connected, and above all extremely commercial. Today this scheme is questioned at every level: economical, environmental, but also cultural," shares BEAU Architects' Charlotte Lafont-Hugo.
"As we're growing up now, everything is more eco-conscious. I think in Hong Kong, we're taking the same spirit of commerce and production, the same skill set, and evolving it into working with eco-materials, reusing materials to create another wave of creativity," Bodin Hon explains.
