Abstract
In June 2007, HKIA in collaboration with a number of professional institutions including Hong Kong Institute of Engineers, Hong Kong Institute of Planners and Hong Kong Institute of Surveyors co-organized the Ideas Competition for Mei Ho House of Shek Kip Mei Estate. The competition was sponsored by the Hong Kong Housing Authority, who currently owned Mei Ho House and Homes Affairs Bureau, with support from Sham Shui Po District Council. The competition was aimed to invite ideas and concepts from building professionals and the general public on the adaptive re-use of Mei Ho House and adjacent Shek Kip Mei Estate Estate Phase 3 and 7, in order to conserve the heritage characteristics of Shek Kip Mei neighbourhood.
