This workshop is distinctly designed alongside the Special Exhibition I. M. Pei: Life Is Architecture and is one of the first parent-child workshops at the museum focusing on architecture as a theme. Architect Kenrick Wong and his design team invite adults and children to collaborate and explore I. M. Pei's iconic design concepts through hands-on learning experiences.
The theme of the workshop is the glass pyramid of the Louvre Museum in Paris. Families are encouraged to use modules of different shapes to create architectural models, test imaginative design ideas, and experience I. M. Pei's creative process through exploring this significant architectural project from his career.
Architecture and design can bring people closer together. Throughout the workshop, adults and children will not only explore architectural elements such as light, space, and geometric shapes but also engage in conceptualising and experimenting with design alongside their family members. Architecture can be a bridge for cross-generational communication and interaction.
About the Architect
Kenrick Wong graduated from the University of Hong Kong's School of Architecture and has been inspired by the works of I. M. Pei since he was a student. He incorporates the consideration of interpersonal interactions into spatial design, exploring how architecture can bring communities together. In recent years, he and his design team at maison V and Orient Occident Atelier have been actively engaged in various community building and design projects, both locally and internationally. They combine the concept of sustainable development with cultural heritage and multimedia technology, injecting vitality into different cities and rural areas in China, Cambodia, Japan, the United Kingdom, and beyond.
