RIBA Hong Kong Chapter Presents:
The Art of Sketching Architectural Narratives 2024

Architectural design has been transformed significantly with the recent advancement of digital tools. However, as architects, we ought to be able to conceptualize and formulate our thoughts through simple drawings. Hand sketching has continued to be an essential tool in this process.

Supported by the Hong Kong Design Centre, the RIBA Hong Kong Chapter hand sketch exhibition and competition will aim to showcase hand sketches from a selection of notable architects and students in Hong Kong, to illustrate the diversity of thoughts, styles and creativity at different stages of the design, and to serve as inspirations for our current and future generations of architects.

Works from established, emerging practices and individuals will be exhibited at the new HKDC hub from December 2024 until January 2025 and will give the opportunity for publicity and engagement.
