Sustainable and Optimized Housing
in Hong Kong
Come up with your most innovative solutions to help Dragages shape the future of economically viable and sustainable housing in Hong Kong! Hong Kong is a major port and global financial hub with a skyscraper-studded skyline. Unfortunately, for Asia’s world city the latter misleadingly conceals a deep-rooted housing crisis which has rocked the livelihoods of millions.
It's over to you to come up with innovative solutions to initiate the integration of existing technologies and redefine the future of housing in Hong Kong. Develop synergies with local partners (Greater China scope) for your solution to vitalize your project.
We want you to focus on specific ideas and elements that you've looked into in as much depth as possible and come up with a cohesive solution which could be integrated into the buildings of future in Hong Kong.

For your inspiration!
Structure and Architecture
- Feasible structural and architectural design to achieve a better use of space.
- Sustainable and durable materials to improve residents’ life.
-
Higher quality/lower cost ratio for future housing complexes
Possible enabling technologies and elements:
- Biomimicry
- 3D Printing
- Recycled materials
- Green walls
- Micro-farming
- Virtual reality
Interiors and Operations
With limited space available in average buildings, Hong Kong has a lot at stake to optimize its current construction and look ahead for new innovative solutions to improve the current standards. In order to gain in efficiency and provide a better experience to all their users, construction companies should bring clever optimizations considering all existing constraints:
-
Make our buildings more efficient in terms of energy, costs, security or general experience.
-
Improve the interiors in Hong Kong apartments without adding to significant costs for residents.
Possible enabling technologies and elements:
- Smart lightening & heating (Integrated IoT sensors)
- Automated Security (Facial recognition, fingerprint locks…)
- Predictive Maintenance (Machine learning)
- Green resources and technology
- Virtual & Augmented reality to add layers of available information
Keep in Mind
-
Your project should be realistic & consider limited space as its first constraint.
- Your proposed solution should be based on existing products/services available in the Greater China ecosystem.
-
Your project must be economically viable: how do we integrate the existing concepts and technologies into HK housing and simultaneously make it affordable and accessible to the general population?
