Mr. Cary LAU, Mr. Boris LO and Mr. Paul CHU (Team 629187)
obtained their Master of Architecture degree from the University
of Hong Kong in 1998. In 2001 they extended their spirit
from the soccer field to the open architectural design competition
'In Search for Diversity in School Design', the first-ever
Hong Kong school design open competition which called for
a through-train school design (a new school prototype that
consists of both primary and secondary sessions). Their
submission, 'Cluster of Interactive Green', was awarded
champion out of 83 submissions by over 300 local and overseas
architects. Their design proposal was accepted by the client
and the design was under realization from 2002 to 2006.
With the aim to suggest creative school design outside the
'Hong Kong standardized school' domain, the school encompassed
such innovative ideas as 'redefined learning space module',
'separation within unification'. The school was recently
completed in July 2006 and is now serving the first batch
of students in Tseung Kwan O. Team 629187 was awarded '20
Emerging Hong Kong Architects for 21th Century ' in 2003.
The team will share with us the school design, the process
of realization, and last but not least, the memory of creating
the school. The lecture will be followed by a visit to the
school on 18 Nov 2006 (Sat), from 10.00am-1.00pm.
