“WELL • BEING” Public Housing Well-being Journey

Our life is full of wonders and joy, yet it presents a lot of challenges too.
How might we use design to enhance the sense of well-being of public housing residents and create a happier place for them?
In search of the answer, Housing Bureau and Housing Authority has assembled a professional team, including architects, designers, scholars and researchers who put listening to the center of their research.
Through “design-thinking” and “participatory design” processes, the team will engage with and listen to the needs of public housing residents to enhance their well-being in the public estates. Through the aspects of living, design and neighborhood, they will work collaboratively with residents to build a well-being community for public housing developments. The goal is to create a more comfortable estate environment, facilities, and public spaces, thereby enhancing the sense of well-being among Hong Kong public housing residents.
