Sitting Out Area under Hill Road Flyover<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Sitting Out Area (SOA) under Hill Road Flyover is located in Shek Tong Tsui. It is approximately 314 sq. m in size and has easy access from both the Queen\u2019s Road West and the Lower Hill Road. There are a few benches and Chinese chess tables within the SOA perimeter. The support columns of the Hill Road Flyover are currently painted with graffiti and drawings, and the sitting out area mainly serves the local community.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Design Process & Research<\/h3>\n

\n
\n\t

Through the exploration of \"play\", the team tests the verticality of the site under the Hill Road Flyover and proposes the installations inspired by its mountainous surroundings, offering the community new possibilities and excitement through a playful approach. The design also includes seating areas and communal activity zones, as well as chess tables, accommodating one of the most popular activity at the site.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Sitting Out Area under Hill Road Flyover<\/strong>
\nExploring ideas to utilise the vertical height of the flyover, the team hopes to intensify the site through a series of installation and facilities inspired by the site's context and history. Offering residents and park users new perspectives and experiences, encouraging the local community to explore the verticality of the residual space under the flyover.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
