The prestigious list recognizes Ka Chi as one of Asia Pacific’s most talented young architects and commends his contribution to advocating for the Hong Kong cultural and design scene.
KPF Architect Ka Chi has contributed to the design of global mixed-use neighborhoods including the competition-winning design of 8 Canada Square, a proposed transformation of the former HSBC headquarters in Canary Wharf into a unique destination featuring best-in-class workspaces, amenities, and ambitious sustainability credentials. He also worked on the design of Vanke Cloud Gradus, Shenzhen, a master plan comprising a network of workspaces, residential, multi-layered public spaces, and cultural venues.
His contribution to the Hong Kong cultural scene is highlighted by his curatorial work on the Ferragamo “Bing Sutt” Truck Campaign. The collaboration with the Italian brand and Hong Kong Art Gallery Association is a reinterpretation of the local cold-drinking house culture through a mobile showroom featuring nostalgic designs and docking at prime city locations.
