This Lab explores how design, creativity, and community collaboration can reimagine urban spaces and bring cities to life. It focuses on how art, music, and public design interventions can transform underused environments into vibrant places of connectio                   n and expression. For example, participants might explore how Hong Kong’s Central–Mid-Levels Escalator could be reimagined — turning an everyday route through SoHo’s backstreets into a living cultural corridor of art, music, and design. Participants will work together to generate ideas that turn the city into a living, participatory canvas — where culture, creativity, and design shape everyday experience.
