The planning principles of the Kau Yi Chau
Artificial Islands proposal, such as the 15-minute
neighbourhood and eco-shoreline, were presented
to visitors together with an interactive town

planning game which facilitates an understanding
of the layout planning of the artificial islands
and the considerations involved. The game also
worked as an effective platform for collecting
public opinions on the land uses of the future
artificial islands in a smart and interactive manner.
