Monday, November 19, 2012

Many years ago, a group of experienced architects and scholars voiced their concerns to the government that the so-called creative industry of Hong Kong was heading downhill at an exponential rate.

The reason behind the claim was the severe lack of opportunities available for local architects, especially young and emerging talent.

Hong Kong is famous for its architecture scene and has always been an open playground for the world, welcoming international architects and designers to erect landmarks.

There are benefits to being an open ground for architects from around the world.

However, to promote the so-called creative industry, one must understand that the prerequisite is a strong group of local architects and designers.

International firms wishing to participate in an architectural competition here must partner with a local firm to submit their entry.

Although this may help improve the situation for a while, it is perhaps the general attitude of "The West is better" that has really killed the opportunities for local talent. And for emerging talent, the problem is perhaps even more severe.

There aren't enough competitions that have fewer entry requirements and are open to small local firms only.

Such endeavors are important and the government must take the initiative to offer opportunities to the next generation to train and prove themselves.
