EcoPark Honors with Certificate of Excellence

29/11/2010

In respect of its sustainable architectural design, EcoPark Administration Building is honored with the Certificate of Excellence: Green or Sustainable Build in Perspective Awards 2010. Designed by Max Connop, Executive Director of Aedas, the building takes the form of a concave curve to create an ‘open arms’ effect, crafting a strong sense of enclosure and welcome to visitors.

EcoPark is a key element in the Hong Kong government’s strategy to promote and support local re-cycling and environmentally-conscious industries. A multi-purpose administration building contains a visitor/education centre and product gallery for the community education, together with meeting rooms, resources centre and supportive facilities for use by the tenants. A palette of eco-friendly materials was used, including an extensive green roof to improve thermal performance; light funnels to increase the effective natural lighting; and regionally sourced external ‘self-finished’ terracotta louvers providing sustainable solar shading to the extensively glazed inner façade.
