Degree Show 2001-2002 Master of Architecture
24 Jun 2002
The Degree Show is the annual exhibition of architectural design projects, known as ‘Design Thesis’, produced by the Master degree final year students in the Department of Architecture of the University of Hong Kong. These hypothetical design projects represent individual students' idealized visions of the built-environment of Hong Kong, or other cities in China. Many of these projects reflect students' social concerns over the living environment of the young and old with many kinds of difficulties. With their determination to tackle the environmental problems as the priority and the sustainability and energy conservation in their mind, some produced alternative solutions to those by the government or private developers in their conventional ways. Others display their preoccupation with art, folk art, traditional and contemporary performing art, music and films or images of an ideal place for pleasure, work and community. There are also theatres, museums, educational and research buildings and community centres in a quest for an ideological form or to challenge the conventions of such building types.
