GOLD WINNING PROJECT
Xmas’ TREE Nursery
Designed by AaaM ARCHITECTS
The Xmas’ TREe Nursery took a socially-engaging approach to convey an environmental message through a temporary installation. In lieu of gigantic installations common in Hong Kong in the Xmas’ season, 36 Xmas’ trees of humane scale made up by 16,000 recycled paper drink cartons, with the participation of over 1600 primary students and thousands of public, formed a Xmas’ tree nursery. Re-conceptualizing from festive consumerism icon back to one of sharing and respect for the environment, the Xmas’ trees planted lasting environmental awareness and initiate recycling habit in modern city living.
