A Chinese government building in Hong Kong
Abstract
dc:description.abstractThis thesis proposes a Chinese government building in HONG KONG reflecting the contemporary social, economic and political situation. It includes three parts: First, the study of the building systems of the building which reflect the symbolic idea of a gateway in the Central Business District of Hong Kong; second, the proposal to connect the existing system of elevated footbridges in the urban fabric of CBD in Hong Kong; Third, the implementation of this project by an advanced computer graphics workstation IBM 5080 with the softwares CADAM and ISD. In this way, the results are elucidated by a series of computer drawings which not only exemplify the architectural design process but also act as guidelines for students interested in computer-aided design.
