The Walk DVRC International Design Competition is seeking visions for Hong Kong’s new Central Business District and a more walkable, pedestrian environment on a 1.4 km stretch of Des Voeux Road Central.
It is an idea-based contest to re-envision and re-engage the street as quality public space – a placemaking effort in a vehicle-choked urban street.
The five Finalists will be given US$20,000 each for use on production of their entries. These entries, submitted digitally, should take the form of a maximum of 4 A0 boards and may also be accompanied by animation/video.
The competition is international and open, but not limited, to architecture, landscape architecture, urban design and planning, transport planning, sustainable design and community consultation practitioners and students.
