The design concept is derived from the unique iron gates in Hong Kong and the wave-shaped iron plates of public housing buildings.
It also incorporates the regularity of the Tung Choi Street being open in the morning and closing in the evening. The disassembly and installation are flexible and can be placed and removed according to the requirements of the road and time. The geometric, tree - like structures create an intriguing visual appeal. They seem to blend functionality with artistry, offering shade while also serving as an eye - catching urban feature. It gives off a modern and innovative vibe, making it an inviting spot for people to relax and socialize.

The design transforms Sham Shui Po’s century-old underground reservoir into a restaurant that reconnects people with Hong Kong’s history. Rope and net, represents the flow of time, linking past and present. I used the red threads as the concept of my design, this design connecting the stone pillars with a red net gives new life to the space
The site is a Grade 1 historical monument, and no existing artifacts could be damaged. I employed a plug-in design approach to create three distinct spaces. Elevated floors offer new perspectives. Bridges connecting the floors allow people to traverse the space. A slightly elevated dining platform provides an observation deck for the basement level while retaining space to integrate into the dining area. This project truly transforms the site into a functional destination, inviting repeat visitors and connecting them to Hong Kong's history.
