We are thrilled to share with you the inaugural edition of Open House Hong Kong is slated to be held on the weekends of 21–22 and 28–29 September 2024! In partnership with the Design Trust, the Festival will showcase around 50 sites and buildings around Hong Kong, highlighting the remarkable cultural and architectural diversity of the city. Attendees will have the opportunity to explore a range of architectural styles, from vernacular architecture and nineteenth-century colonial buildings to cutting-edge designs by local and international “starchitects”.
Upholding the spirit of Open House, the festival will include sites that are usually not open to the public, such as historic buildings, skyscrapers, industrial buildings, and infrastructure. They will open their doors to welcome visitors, allowing the general public to personally experience the architectural wisdom and art of Hong Kong. In addition to the building visits, the team will also organise various activities, including guided tours and discussions led by experts and architecture enthusiasts, exploring themes such as design, aesthetics, history, heritage, livability, and sustainability.
