INJECTING MIXITY - SOHO
ESTABLISHING THE SPINE
Development of major public space to connect people from the north to the MTR station.
URBAN - NATURE CONNECT
Creating a visible nexus of water and urban lung spaces.
WATER - ENERGY SYNTHESIS
Generating a network of renewables energy sources and maximizing water self sufficiency.
ACROSS THE SITE
Introducing a mixed use development with new typology to create a Work - Live - Study scenario.
Major transit flows of people towards CBD Scarcity of service oriented job oppurtunities within the new town. Fragmented North South corridor Disconnect of old Tai po and new development. Division of nature and urban environment. Poor distribution of energy due to obsolete program and typology. Potential to become energy efficient and water sufficient.
INJECTING MIXED USED DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM TO ARRIVE SELF SUFFICIENT WORK-LIVE-STUDY SPACE SCENARIO
SOLAR PV PANELS FOR MAXIMUM EFFICIENCY IN CAPTURING SOLAR ENERGY KEEPING IN MIND THE OVERSHADING FACTORS
DEVELOPMENT OF MAJOR PUBLIC SPINE TO RECONNECT NEW TAI PO TO KWONG FUK SQUARE, NEW SOHO DEVELOPMENT AND MRT AS A NETWORK

Mixed use blocks and buildings with active ground floor: * A complex of 9 high-rise buildings with active ground floors * 16 pedestrian lanes with retail facilities, offices etc.
Loopable energy and Social space system: * Scheme that brings together productive processes that allows for food production, energy generation & water treatment to be connected into the model.
Low impact development strategies : * Minimum asphalt area by stacking parking with silos. * Pavement areas to be made more porous to ensure greater water retention into the soil.
Home - Work - Study transit modes : * Bicycle Sharing System * Paris & surroundings * 1230 stations * 17,000 bikes * 85,000 users
