Challenging, Redefining, and Healing:Using the Central of Hong Kong as a sample site to propose a multi-layer pedestrian system for the future cities

Based on the dilemma of Hong Kong’s urban space and the emotional problems faced by urbanites, this project is positioned to break the existing model of highdensity urban sky-link, setting the scene in the future Central and re-positioning the stakeholder discourse.

Set up a multi-level pedestrian system in the future city oriented by respecting site resources, natural environment and user needs.The pedestrian space is used as a landscape medium to provide a more diverse and enriched pedestrian system, with the aim of healing urban emotional problems and mental health through the streetscape.Proposes a freer, more flexible model of urban living for the future.

The “healing journey” mentioned in the design section of the project is not only a journey of emotional healing for the urbanites facing spiritual difficulties in the story, but also a process of “self-reflection”. More than anything else, I hope that people will reflect on whether they are trapped in the process of urbanisation and whether the city is trapped in a false situation full of ‘forms’ and ‘interests’.
