Build to Sustain: from Ideas to Practice

BWPI were invited to attend a 4C salon organized by Arup on 19th December, the theme of which was ‘Build to Sustain: from Ideas to Practice’. 

Experts from the industry and academia looked into the cutting edge of sustainable architectural design, introducing the latest ideas, technologies and practices at home and abroad and leading to further reflections on the future development of eco-design and low carbon projects through heated discussion.

Mr Zheng Shiyou, Director of Arup, shared many green architecture projects in his presentation ‘Ideas and Practices in Green Architecture’ in which an urban planning in the West Kowloon area of Hong Kong caught our attention as it is relevant to one of our office urban planning projects - Hiram's Highway in Hong Kong.
