The Hong Kong Construction Association (HKCA) has launched the "Best Practice Guideline for Carbon Smart Construction Site," a pioneering initiative to help contractors reduce carbon emissions and promote sustainability. Developed with the Business Environment Council (BEC), the Guideline introduces the "4M1E" framework—Man, Machinery, Materials, Methods, and Environment—featuring 36 smart low-carbon measures tailored to various project types. Supported by the Development Bureau and the Environmental Protection Department, it aligns with Hong Kong’s goal of achieving carbon neutrality by 2050 and cutting emissions by 26–36% by 2030.

Globally, construction contributes over 30% of carbon emissions. In Hong Kong, 2020 emissions were about 20% lower than in 2005. HKCA President Ir. Simon Liu (left) emphasized the association’s commitment to sustainable development, noting the Guideline offers practical solutions from a contractor’s perspective, including digital management and eco-friendly materials. Mr. Anthony Chan (right), Honorary Secretary of HKCA, added, “The Guideline is not merely a theoretical reference document, but a practical action guide.” The initiative encourages industry-wide adoption of innovative technologies and sustainable practices. By categorizing measures based on effectiveness and applicability, the Guideline empowers companies to tailor strategies to their specific needs, marking a significant step in decarbonizing Hong Kong’s construction sector.

18 Cross is a landmark redevelopment in Singapore’s Central Business District, transforming a fragmented urban space at Cross Street and Nankin Road. Led by Benoy, PAG, DCA, and Cundall, the 14,000 m² mixed-use project revitalizes the former Cross Street Exchange using adaptive reuse and heritage preservation. It features a sustainable design integrating a four-story podium and a 15-story Grade A office tower with historic shophouses, fostering connectivity and vibrancy. The adjacent Nankin Yard project, completing in late 2025, will merge 18 heritage buildings with six contemporary additions, enhancing walkability and public interaction. Previously, the site lacked cohesion, with aging offices and a disconnected layout. The redesign overcomes these challenges, uniting historical and modern architecture into a multifunctional space that reflects Singapore’s evolving urban identity and commitment to sustainability. This heritage-driven transformation sets a precedent for balancing development with cultural continuity in high-density environments.

88 Walker Street is a 50-storey mixed-use tower in North Sydney’s CBD, acclaimed at the World Architecture Festival 2024. Designed by Fitzpatrick+Partners, it creatively integrates a heritage fire station-turned-pub with a sleek high-rise, symbolizing Sydney’s evolution into a global city. The dual slender tower forms maximize space on a tight site, with a dramatic 9-meter cantilever over the pub preserving its visibility and heritage. Engineered with angled steel and concrete columns, the structure balances hotel and office functions within a 600-square-meter footprint. The softened façade and sculpted ground plane enhance the pedestrian experience and activate adjacent laneways. The lower levels house a 252-room hotel; the upper levels feature open-plan office villages designed for flexibility and collaboration. Achieving a 5-star Green Star rating, the building prioritizes sustainability while offering panoramic harbour views. 88 Walker is a benchmark of innovation, merging heritage, engineering, and elegance in a vibrant urban landmark.

C·PARK Haisu, located in Shanghai’s Changning District, is a visionary mixed-use development designed by Gensler. It artfully blends culture, nature, and commerce with fluid spatial transitions and sustainable architecture. Positioned near the Liu Haisu Art Museum, the project elevates urban design by lifting key structures to form floating courtyards and sunken plazas, encouraging pedestrian engagement and community interaction. Boutique retail, interactive exhibitions, and green leisure zones form a vibrant urban experience.

The façade, inspired by Liu Haisu’s landscape art, features fractal geometry that links buildings and complements the museum. Sustainability is central, with slanted surfaces and a terracotta sun-shading system that reduce light pollution and heat gain, maintaining harmony with nearby residences. Integrated LED panels offer dynamic digital expression and event versatility, enriching the site’s cultural resonance. C·PARK Haisu redefines modern architectural boundaries by fusing digital and physical realms in a lively, artistically inspired environment.

HKRI Taikoo Hui proudly unveils “The Louis” by Louis Vuitton—a visionary space that redefines the boundary between luxury, culture, and urban living. Situated in the vibrant Nanjing West Road commercial district, this architectural landmark serves as a new cultural icon in Shanghai. Blending retail, gastronomy, and immersive storytelling, it brings a bold new energy to the destination, while reinforcing HKRI Taikoo Hui’s reputation as a world-class lifestyle hub.

“The Louis” is more than a boutique—it is a sculptural experience. Inspired by Louis Vuitton’s rich heritage of travel and Shanghai’s status as the “Gateway to the East,” the striking boat-shaped structure features a metallic Monogram hull, an elegant deck, and stacked levels reminiscent of the brand’s iconic trunks. Every design detail reflects a deep narrative of exploration and craftsmanship.

Inside, visitors can enjoy Le Café Louis Vuitton, offering elevated café fare in a refined atmosphere. The Visionary Journeys exhibition invites guests into an imaginative voyage through time, history, and innovation. As part of HKRI Taikoo Hui’s ongoing transformation, “The Louis” signals a new chapter of cultural engagement, design excellence, and luxury storytelling in the heart of Shanghai.
