Text description provided by the architects. Revitalisation of existing spaces has been a keen initiative of the government in recent years, with a focus leaning on historical architecture and industrial buildings. As the recently completed Hong Kong Federation of Women T.S. Kwok Service Centre demonstrates, spaces that fit for adaptive reuse may not be limited to what we have always known. Designed by Barrie Ho, a renowned architectural designer in Hong Kong, the new Centre takes up an urban space once deemed inhospitable under the Canal Road flyover. With immense creativity and an articulate contemporary architecture design, residual spaces could also be transformed into places pleasing and practical.
