Green wall cascades down K11 Musea shopping centre in Hong Kong



K11 Musea is a shopping centre on the Tsim Sha Tsui harbour-front in Hong Kong, designed by an architecture team led by Kohn Pedersen Fox.
The retail development is clad in Portuguese limestone, with 4,600 square metres of green walls and a green roof featuring urban farms.

The ten-storey complex is cultural centre for the wider Victoria Dockside development of billionaire property developer Adrian Cheng.
Also led by Kohn Pedersen Fox, the Victoria Dockside includes the 65-storey Rosewood Hotel , the K11 Artus serviced apartments and the K11 Atelier office building.

K11 Musea is the work of over 100 collaborators, including Rotterdam-based OMA, landscape designers James Corner Field Operations and local architecture practice LAAB Architects.

Other recent retail openings in Hong Kong include a fashion store filled with honeycomb sculptures and a beauty shop lined with steel shelves.
The stepped form of K11 Musea is surrounded ground level by an arcade-like run of luxury shopping destinations and restaurants.

This atrium is lined with hand-stamped aluminium panels, designed by LAAB Architects ...
