Inverted Hong Kong - Design

Inverted Hong Kong was an installation on show at the Cities Exhibition during the Seoul Biennale of Architecture and Urbanism. Located within the recently renovated Donuimun Village, the installation played with the boundary lines of an interstitial lane. The audience was challenged with representing a city as a system of thresholds where the domestic and the collective overlap. This spatial setup was an opportunity to transpose the reflections and insights gained during the observation and testing of liminal sites in Hong Kong, mapping them to another interstitial site in Seoul.
