ARchi HK

Verbesserung Bewusstsein und Verständnis gegenüber der modernen Architektur in Hong Kong

This mobile app is intended for the public and students to appreciate modern architectural

heritage in Hong Kong, mainly those built from the 1920s-1950s. Primarily developed to

enhance the field trip experience for university students, it also embodies augmented

reality (AR) and GPS locations so all public users can easily locate neighbouring sites of

modern architectural heritage around them and appreciate their historical, social and

aesthetic contexts in a user-friendly way. The mobile app will therefore construct

knowledge actively through negotiation with the buildings and heritage sites and aim at

enhancing awareness and understanding towards modern architecture in Hong Kong.
