Hong Kong is a city uniquely located on a small yet mountainous island with a rich cultural background. The creation of Hong Kong’s public waterfront promenades has been a recent one fueled by the desire for more natural green-blue public spaces for personal and community use. In this project our group has observed and analysed seven specific public waterfront spaces ranging from Hong Kong Island to the New Territories. The goal of the project is to understand if structures that provide cover at Hong Kong waterfronts affect waterfront usage during the winter season.
