Landmark Hotel @ KPF - '02 

Hong Kong, China
 

Phase I of the renovation involved the complete recladding of the original 1970s building and the upgrading of internal finishes with French limestone and new storefronts and entrances. Additional efforts included a skylighted atrium roof and an interior fountain. A suspended, three-story wall of folded vertical glass panels envelopes the new retail podium along Queen’s Road Central, unifying the complex’s disparate elements. Conceived as a diaphanous veil, the zigzag glass screen alternately obscures and reveals the retail environment, connecting the interior activity to the streets of Central. I was involved early in the design stage developing sketch & presentaton models for both design team and client.
