NEW OFFICE WORKS (Founders: Paul Tse, AIA, and Evelyn Ting, Assoc. AIA)
NEW OFFICE WORKS (NOW) is an architectural practice based in Hong Kong. The firm works across all scales, from architecture and art installations to writing and exhibitions. Its approach to design is to build upon the vocabulary accumulated “then” while satisfying the needs and desires of “now.”
NOW received 1st prize in the inaugural Hong Kong Young Architects & Designers Competition and 2nd prize in the Busan (Korea) Opera House Competition.
THEN is a separate division devoted to writing and research on architecture and the city. It extrapolates architectural knowledge from ancient traditions and contemporary urban life and has received two Design Trust Seed Grants for a video series on the everyday elements of Hong Kong architecture.

Dear Members and Friends of AIA Hong Kong,

Following the success of the 2018 Joint Symposium with HKIA and RIBA (HK), we are excited to share more new ideas with you as we continue our dialog on public and private spaces. AIA Hong Kong is launching a design competition to explore the concept of the “Smart City” – the first of which is to create smart street furniture for the digital age using innovative, sustainable and urban thinking.

What is the 21st century equivalent of a phone booth? This competition will encourage cross disciplinary teams to explore the lowly phone booth’s potential new use and identity in a smart city. The winners will get a chance to exhibit their prototype and present at our annual symposium. The competition will have two rounds and it is open only to young members (under 40 years of age) of AIA Hong Kong, HKIA and RIBA Hong Kong. Please download the design brief here to find out more. The submission deadline is Aug 12, 2019 (Monday), at 5pm and, for any enquiries, you may contact info@aiahk.org.

We are pleased to announce that BSC Group will be the Event Sponsor of our Smart City Series Program.

Don’t miss this opportunity to submit your ideas and get a chance to have your design become a full-scale prototype!
