Host

Bi-City Biennale of Urbanism\Architecture (Hong Kong)

The 2019 Bi-City Biennale of Urbanism\Architecture (Hong Kong) (UABBHK2019), organised by The Hong Kong Institute of Architects Biennale Foundation (HKIABF) in association with The Hong Kong Institute of Architects (HKIA), The Hong Kong Institute of Planners (HKIP) and Hong Kong Designers Association (HKDA) as co-organisers and Create Hong Kong of the Government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region as the lead sponsor, will open from 19 December 2019 until 15 March2020 with the aim of creating an environment for creative exchange and urbanist advocacy for the urban planners, professionals and the general public.

The UABBHK2019 carries the theme “2×2: Imagine to Innovate”, and its curatorial team, led by Mr. Wu Tsan Sum Roger, believes the key of 2×2 lies in how current and future generations imagine and envision the city. Through IMAGINATION, we can place creative and forward-thinking demands in the city; INNOVATION will enable out-of-the-box advances to fulfil these demands while TECHNOLOGY can be the medium to bridge the two and unlock the possibilities.
