“Hong Kongsets an extreme example of hyper-density living. MTR’s Kowloon Station projectoffered my firm the unique opportunity to contribute to a new type of fullyintegrated three dimensional transport mega-structure, conceived as awell-connected place for people to live, work and play. Through Charlie Xue’s book, one can seehow a compact city works and high density integrated development indicates asustainable path for modern city making.”
Sir Terry Farrell, CBE, Principal, Farrells
"Well researched andrefreshingly well structured, Charlie Xue's latest book comprehensively showshow Hong Kong's post-war urban architecture both tracks and symbolizes theformer British colony's rise to success - a must read for architecture andculture buffs alike."
Peter G. Rowe,Raymond Garbe Professor of Architecture and Urban Design, Harvard UniversityDistinguished Service Professor.
“Anessential addition to the growing literature on Chinese architecture, the titleof the book belies the full scope of Xue’s extensive history. Covering HongKong’s postwar transition from defeated colony to Pacific Age power house, Xueexpertly traces the evolution of the city’s ambitious and innovative programsof integrated high density urban design and infrastructure, as well as changingarchitectural fashions. In a time when many Westerngovernments have all but abandoned public housing programs, Xue’s book is atimely reminder of what can be achieved.”
