UK architectβs βweaveβ design reaches final shortlist for residential development
Architect Astudio has made it on to a a final shortlist of two firms for a major new Hong Kong residential tower.
The UK architectβs βweaveβ design for a new high rise residential block in the Hung Hom District district of Hong Kong involves a high proportion of the apartments situated in the higher sections of the building where they have better views and can attract higher prices.
Astudio is up against a local firm for the scheme, with the winner now set to be chosen by the projectβs Hong Kong developer.
Richard Hyams, director at Astudio, said: βThe whole building is brought together around a central low energy philosophy using Algae walls, evaporative cooling, and gardens providing a vertical park in the centre of the city.β
