A companion to The Urban Design of Concession, this volume collects sketches and essays that reflect the evolving character and personality of Hong Kong. Impermanence underlies the urban design language of Hong Kong. Arguably this is a reflection of the embedded philosophy of change inherent in Chinese culture, which tends to impart rather transient values that promote a strong link between the spiritual and the human condition. The idea of using sketches to illustrate the array of street attributes and their collective impact on urban design emerged through a perceived need to add some visual life to a research project on urban regeneration.
