Towards a Retrospective and Prospective Vision for Lantau Island in Hong Kong That Sustains Cultural and Social Values ()
ABSTRACT
A
sustainable urban vision needs to reflect the distinctive qualities,
characteristics and identities of each individual space and city,
integrated with evolving social and cultural aspects. This vision is also an
expression of the integrated values and perspectives the inhabitants of each
city have for what should be responsible and sustained. This paper provides a
project-based critical assessment and review focusing in particular on a development
called Swire Leadership Centre (SLC) in Lantau, Hong Kong. Using the case
project, this paper suggests sustainable design alternatives with the value of
local resources and cultural identity.
