The building is the result of an international competition held in 2007 and is Zaha Hadid Architects’s first building in Hong Kong – coming thirty years after Hadid’s famous competition design for the Hong Kong Peak Leisure Club in 1983.
The competition named five winners out of over 50 finalists across the Student, Commercial, Concept, Lighting and Green categories.
A group of architects, critics and academics will discuss the status of design competitions in Melbourne and within the context of Australia.
