The Chinese University of Hong Kong Art Museum

Rocco Design Architects (new annex)

BUILT IN
2025 (new annex)

The Lo Kwee Seong Pavilion of the Art Museum at The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) was awarded the “Medal of the Year” by the Hong Kong Institute of Architects Awards 2025 (HKIA Awards). The new Lo Kwee Seong Pavilion’s form resembles the peaks of the Lingnan region’s mountains and integrates itself into the natural landscape and topography of CUHK. Connecting to the Museum’s original galleries, the University Avenue and the University Mall, it is a new artistic and cultural landmark at CUHK. Its structural, V-column implies the concepts of heritage and support, or “承” in Chinese. The facade was designed using formlining fairfaced concrete, meaning that it was embossed using specially created formwork in a unique pattern, with varying depths and densities of lines and grooves.


Address: Art Museum, The Chinese University of Hong Kong, Sha Tin, New Territories, Hong Kong
