Handi Architects Limited

Handi was established in Hong Kong in 1999. Handi’s pursuit of quality is a belief that the quality of our surroundings directly influences the quality of our lives. The social dimension of architecture, which is generated by the needs of people, is acknowledged. Such quest for quality also embraces the physical performance of buildings, which succeeds to endure under the test of time. 

 

Handi also believes that architecture can be a form taken to fulfil the self-actualisation needs of different participants or contributors of the projects, ranging from the architects to the colleagues of Handi, or even the users. Handi wishes to contribute in another social dimension by providing some encouragement & gratification, which are particularly significant to most of the firm’s participants who, to a different extent, get a deficiency in certain different physical realms. 

 

Handi takes the best from different disciplines and aims to fuse different realms of knowledge effortlessly. The practice has no recipes, working with the client, program, and all the other project parameters to crossover and develop a unique but above all an appropriate solution that is fun and a pleasure to experience.

 

Address:  Unit 2010, 20/F, Tower 1, Grand Century Place, 193 Prince Edward Road West, Kowloon, Hong Kong.

Adopting MiC to Build Light Public Housing (LPH) to Expedite Housing Supply

The Policy Address 2022 announced the construction of LPH. The LPH Scheme is led by the Architectural Services Department with the adoption of MiC. The Housing Bureau has selected eight sites in Tuen Mun, Yuen Long, Ma On Shan, Kai Tak, Ngau Tau Kok and Chai Wai, providing around 30,000 LPH units. The construction period takes only one to two years. Each units equipped with self-contained toilet and basic facilities such as water heater and air-con. The first batch of around 2,100 units will be completed in 2024-25 and the remaining units will be completed by phases in 2025-26 and 2026-27, so as to shorten the waiting time of public housing.
