PROJECT BACKGROUND

With a concept of “back to nature”, this project aims to promote organic vegetable farming in rural Hong Kong. All parts of the building, such as the reception area, restaurants, sharing kitchens, guest rooms, public seating area, washrooms and bathrooms, are all surrounded by vegetable farmlands. Visitors can enjoy organic vegetables wherever they go. As lighting is one of the main factors affecting successful vegetable growth, a shade net is used to act as a physical control of lighting. In fact, the net is not only used for reducing crop loss but is also good at improving crop production.
