Transformation of a derelict Guangdong Float Glass Factory is finished! The factory is reopened as the main venue for the bi-city Shenzhen-Hong Kong Biennale. It would catalyze a unique place in the city and inspire the residents to a more critical engagement with the city and its development. BASIC CITY together with FCHArchi O-Office (China), RUA Arquitetos (Brasil) and O-Office (China) delivered the concept for the Main Hall of the factory. An exciting experience on a project that could hopefully contribute to rethinking the quality of the rapid urbanization in China.
