ARchi HK

This mobile app is intended for the public and students to appreciate modern architectural
heritage in Hong Kong, mainly those built from the 1920s-1950s. Primarily developed to
enhance the field trip experience for university students, it also embodies augmented
reality (AR) and GPS locations so all public users can easily locate neighbouring sites of
modern architectural heritage around them and appreciate their historical, social and
aesthetic contexts in a user-friendly way. The mobile app will therefore construct
knowledge actively through negotiation with the buildings and heritage sites and aim at
enhancing awareness and understanding towards modern architecture in Hong Kong.
