Urban Design Guidelines Revamp

The Urban Design Guidelines (UDG) Revamp was awarded the Certificate
of Merit of the Hong Kong Institute of Planners Awards 2020, as well as the

Nominated Awards of the Greater Bay Area Urban Design Awards 2020

under the Plan/Concept Category. The purpose of the UDG Revamp was to
restructure the current UDG under Chapter 11 of the Hong Kong Planning
Standards and Guidelines to be a more flexible, user-friendly and engaging

document to inspire our understanding of urban design principles and

aspiration for a quality built environment. The new edition also incorporates
design considerations which assimilate the strategic directions to improve
liveability of the city as set out in the Hong Kong 2030+.
