The West Kowloon Cultural District (WKCD), WT project of a 40 hectares to boost cultural and entertainment establishments at Hong Kong, SAR. Located at the wedge-shaped waterfront reclaimed land west of Yau Ma Tei, the district will feature a new museum of visual culture, numerous theatres, concert halls and other performance venues under the management of the West Kowloon Cultural District Authority, which is directly financed by the government. WT approached the design of The District in an innovative and alternative manner, without proposing another banal architectural complex but a vital, dynamic and mixed-use system which takes into account the optimum location and contemplates the quality of life and environment which needs to be infused within the design.
