In an age of digital transformation, the power of hand sketching endures as a vital medium for architectural expression and creative thinking. The Art of Sketching - Architectural Narratives 2024 celebrates this timeless craft through an exceptional showcase of architectural perspectives that capture Hong Kong's distinctive urban tapestry.
This landmark exhibition, organised by RIBA Hong Kong Chapter and supported by Hong Kong Design Centre, brings together works from Hong Kong's leading architectural practices and emerging talents. Through carefully curated hand-drawn studies and sketches, visitors will discover how architects use traditional drawing techniques to document our city's architectural heritage while envisioning its future.
The exhibition features distinguished contributions from major architecture firms alongside inspiring works by local university students, offering unique insights into various design approaches and creative processes. These works, evaluated by renowned curators Charles Hind and Valeria Carullo, demonstrate the enduring significance of hand sketching in architectural practice.
Join us in celebrating the art of architectural sketching and its role in shaping our urban environment. Experience first-hand how the simple act of drawing by hand continues to inspire innovation in architectural design.
