City’s Playground is an exhibition commissioned by the Planning Department in celebration of the 20th Anniversary of HKSAR. The Pavilion is the front beacon drawing the city’s attention, while the main exhibition content of the various planning initiatives in Hong Kong is distributed in three halls in the City Gallery building.

In light of the temporary nature of the Pavilion, galvanized steel mesh was chosen as the cladding material to give the Pavilion a translucent presence. It also allows the visitor to appreciate the impressive cantilevered ring and the triangulated structure within.

A key design feature of the Pavilion is the four continuous edge lining, which were painstakingly planned to wrap the structure in a continuous manner. They are programmed to give off a pulsating intensity of light, and to trace the profiles in synchronized motion. The effect is dramatic and it impresses upon our visitors the unique form and vibrancy of the Pavilion.
