未知的香港粗獷建築：細節與美學

　　從隱藏到發現：香港粗獷建築的視覺之旅

　　由零開始，本地粗獷建築的研究橫跨三年，參與者包括建築師、建築系學生、攝影師及藝術家，共20人。團隊除了研讀歷史資料，更親自走訪各區，發掘隱藏城中的案例，並深入各座粗獷建築拍攝與記錄，觀察建築細節，體驗空間美學。

　　《未知的香港粗獷建築》一書試圖重塑香港部分的建築歷史與論述，而《未知的香港粗獷建築——細節與美學》則希望與大眾共同鑑賞這些建築的獨特細節，體會一眾前輩建築師的匠心獨運。此外，本書亦可視為團隊探訪34座粗獷建築的足跡印記，成為三年研究的重要影像檔案。

　　讓我們透過精鍊的紀實照片與文字，一同踏上粗獷建築的視覺之旅。

　　From Hidden to Discovered: 
　　A Visual Journey through Hong Kong’s Brutalist Architecture
　
　　Starting from scratch, the local study of Brutalist architecture has spanned three years, involving a team of twenty architects, architecture students, photographers and artists. Beyond researching historical archives, the team personally explored various districts, uncovering hidden architectural gems in the city. We ventured into numerous Brutalist cases, capturing and documenting their essence while closely examining their architectural details and experiencing their spatial aesthetics.

　　The book Unknown Brutalism Architecture in Hong Kong seeks to reshape the discourse and historical narrative of a segment of Hong Kong’s architecture. Meanwhile, DETAILS and AESTHETICS: Unknown Brutalism Architecture in Hong Kong invites the public to appreciate the intricate details defining these structures and experience the masterful ingenuity of pioneering architects. Additionally, this book serves as a record of the team’s journey to 34 Brutalist buildings, forming a crucial visual archive of this three-year research endeavour.

　　Through carefully curated documentary photographs and written narratives, let us embark together on a visual journey to the world of Brutalist architecture in Hong Kong.

名人推薦

　　「香港粗獷建築從來沒有反烏托邦的意識，在缺乏任何歷史和意識形態的包袱下，它可理解為一種完全純真的建築。它的堅韌性如實反映了當時的社會氣氛和政治氣候。在高密度的玻璃摩天大樓普及之前，粗獷建築可說是香港從製造業轉型為金融服務中心過程的重要見證。」——李偉德／Johnston Marklee 創辦合夥人

　　“It is an architecture of innocence without historical and ideological responsibilities. It is never perceived as dystopic as it bears no intention of anti-utopia in the first place. It is an architecture of stoicism and resilience that reflects the social and political climate during a specific time. It is an instrumental architecture to transit Hong Kong from a manufacturing hub to a service centre during a time when Brutalist buildings towered over a less tall, less dense and less shiny version of the city compared with that today.” ─Mark Lee / Principal and founding partner, Johnston Marklee
