Campus Design
Designed by internationally renowned architects Kohn Pedersen Fox Associates (KPF) as an inspirational “smart green campus”, HKUST(GZ) will align with both the style of the Clear Water Bay campus and the natural features of its own environment.
Combining institutional form, function, and aspiration with sustainability and organic beauty, it memorably heralds the university of the future, setting a new standard for higher education.
An architectural design that embodies the unified system between the two campuses, including the same Red Bird Sundial featured at Clear Water Bay.
A network of eight precincts and neighborhoods, each with a distinctive yet complementary character.
Clusters of learning facilities and research labs developed around the four academic hubs and specifically designed for cross-disciplinary collaboration and to facilitate the integration of teaching, learning, research, and knowledge transfer.
Areas connected by accessible concourses to stimulate academic and social interaction.
Integration of accommodation and facilities for daily living and sports activities.
Sustainable planning with nature preservation (50% of the site) to create a fresh and natural experience for students, faculty and visitors, and waterways that echo the coastal landscape of the Clear Water Bay campus.
