Skip-Park transforms a construction skip into a mobile micro-park combining a playscape, a mini playground or resting space for citizens, and an algae wall designed to absorb excess carbon dioxide. It offers a low-cost green solution for densely populated and polluted districts such as Mong Kok.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

\n\t

Exploring the possibilities and opportunities of \u201cpop-up\u201d and \u201ctemporal\u201d spaces, the team decided to work on street skips. Walking the borderline between legality and illegality, they hope to reclaim public space via a network of micro-parks transformed from these street skips.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Stephen and Ffion focused on the research and design of playscape in the skip, while Cesar brought his maker\/environmentalist experience by advising on production and the air-purifying design. The team also worked closely with their mentor Mimi.<\/p>\n

Our concept is to repurpose a skip into a mobile micro-park, a \u201cphotobioreactor\u201d to be accurate. Residents of the neighbourhood can monitor changes in air quality through a series of sensors installed in the skip. This \u201cfresh air rental\u201d service fits right into the density constrain, the availability of a large amount of C02 and the convenience that Hong Kongers love above all.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
