Exhibition showcasing the innovation of vertical urbanism \"Zaha Hadid Architects\" architecture<\/h3>\r\n

H<\/span>ong Kong Design Institute<\/a> (HKDI) and Hong Kong Institute of Vocational Education<\/a> (IVE), together with its affiliated HKDI Gallery<\/a>, are honoured to present its flagship exhibition of the year \u201cZaha Hadid Architects: Vertical Urbanism<\/a>\u201d, as part of their \u201c#EssenceofDesign\u201d programme this year.\u00a0 The exhibition will run until April 3, 2022, both gallery and virtual, with the aim of showcasing a wide range of innovations in architecture.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

HKDI Gallery\u2019s exclusive online exhibition \u201cZaha Hadid Architects: Vertical Urbanism\u201d aims to showcase Zaha Hadid Architects\u2019 (ZHA) innovations in architecture through a display of projects.<\/p><\/div>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0Zaha Hadid Architects\u2019 (ZHA) innovations in architecture through a display of projects with a variety of project documentation tools \u2013 from technical drawings and diagrams, computer-generated visualisations, and architectural models, to video projections and virtual reality experiences. The immersive online exhibition of \u201cZaha Hadid Architects: Vertical Urbanism\u201d builds on the Gallery\u2019s popular digital offering of contemporary design exhibitions, allowing the wider global audience to journey through ZHA\u2019s formative projects, zoom into visual details of architectural models, and experience multimedia elements at their leisure. The exhibition will present a range of approaches taken by ZHA in their development of vibrant and sustainable community-orientated spaces within dense urban conditions. It also explores ZHA\u2019s ongoing research and development, detailing the investigative spirit and pioneering innovation inscribed within the studio\u2019s architecture that are recognised around the world. The late architect Zaha Hadid (1950 - 2016) injected a new level of dynamism into architecture. Her vision has been explosive, fluid and boundless, forcefully questioning the need for urban fortifications in her drive to establish a continuous, active ground-plane. The investigative spirit on which Hadid based her career continues in ZHA\u2019s ground-breaking work around the world. HKDI is committed to promoting design education and facilitating dialogue among industry experts, students and design enthusiasts through partnerships with international museums, design institutions and designers. This exhibition celebrates the ingenuity of ZHA, showcasing the depth of experience of one of the most renowned architecture firms in the world. Curated especially for the Institutes, the exhibition is thematically structured around three aspects of ZHA\u2019s work: expounding on the research of ZHA\u2019s Computation & Design research group (ZHA CODE); exploring the studio\u2019s designs for towers in cities around the world; and showcasing ZHA\u2019s seminal projects in the region.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

ZHA CODE<\/h4>\r\n

ZHA CODE collaborates with the world\u2019s leading scientific institutions to develop innovations in robotics, artificial intelligence and digital fabrication which, in turn, inform ZHA\u2019s design process. Building a comprehensive understanding of local supply chains, materials, craftsmanship and manufacturing, ZHA CODE develops design and logistical strategies with new construction technologies that ensure each project is fundamentally sustainable by using as little material and energy as possible in its assembly and operations. Highlighted exhibits include Thallus, a robotically printed experimental sculpture. ZHA is delivering vertical urban architecture with experiential and communicative value. Incorporating a selection of the studio\u2019s renowned tower projects from around the world, this portion of the exhibition examines the studio\u2019s innovations in moving beyond the existing paradigm of tower design and enhance urbanism in the 21st century.
\r\nIn his formative essay for the exhibition, Patrik Schumacher outlines five critical components of 21st century tower design that are explored within the exhibition: Density; Atria + Bridges; Fa\u00e7ade; Ground Interface; and Sustainability. \u201cThe skyscraper seems locked in the bygone Fordist paradigm of segregating segmentation and serial repetition. The tower typology is the last bastion of this bygone era. The time is ripe to challenge the standard tower typology and demand that it too participates in the general societal restructuring from Fordism to Post-Fordism.\u201d Highlighted projects include One Thousand Museum tower in Miami, and the Leeza SOHO tower in Beijing.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

Regional Highlights<\/h4>\r\n

The exhibition begins with a significant work of Zaha Hadid, on display near the entrance, The Peak project in Hong Kong. The Peak project won Hadid global attention and offered an early glimpse into the concepts and methodologies within ZHA\u2019s work, as showcased in the exhibition \u2013 from the experimentation on structures that push the traditional boundaries, to floating fluid forms, as well as the integration of public spaces within dense urban environments. The exhibition also presents two award-winning projects closer to home that encapsulate ZHA\u2019s vision: the Morpheus Hotel at City of Dreams Macau, as well as the highly anticipated The Henderson tower to be completed in Central, Hong Kong. The world\u2019s first free-form high-rise exo-skeleton, the Morpheus Hotel at City of Dreams Macau opened in 2018 and was designed as a vertical extrusion of the site\u2019s existing abandoned foundations. The 40-storey building of two internal vertical circulation cores connected at podium and roof levels to define its central atrium. The Henderson in Hong Kong creates an urban oasis. The 36-storey design reinterprets the structural forms and layering of a Bauhinia bud about to blossom.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
