Idea projektu

a community sports centre

Shau Kei Wan, Hong Kong Island, Hong Kong

In our densely populated city, we lack the occasion and space to walk but endless commutes. The project takes scheme in one of Hongkonger’s leisure activities hiking by forming a hill to evoke and encourage city-hikes and pedestrian movement.

Popis projektu

The initial concept was in a cocoon shape such that it reaches out to the four corners of the site and blends into the surroundings. As the cocoon itself symbolizes a transitional phase of the lifeforms within awaits to become something beautiful, I envision this sporting facility will have the identity to promote exercises and activeness for the community to become their better selves.

This project excels in its innovative, contemporary and visionary form that embodies a new perspective on sports centre and its relation to the community, arriving a solution of a new interpretation on monumentality and iconism by allowing the public to access the roof. It is they who generate the expression of the building, rather than the building itself.
