PROJECT BACKGROUND

Hong Kong has the most expensive monthly rent units in the world. Therefore, 76 percent of young people in HK aged 18 to 35 still live with their parents. My project is a process of adaptive reuse of an old cinema, the President Theatre, at Causeway Bay and turning it into a co-living space that focus on comfort, convenience and community by filling In the social blank with plug-in living cubes and retaining the cinema structural features.
