Organised by the Hong Kong Architecture Centre, the ‘10 Most Liked Architecture’ campaign aims to increase the public’s engagement with Hong Kong's built environment by voting for their favourite buildings.

Opened last year and accommodating more than 1,800 students and staff, the tower’s design promotes a multidisciplinary environment for HKPU’s School of Design by connecting the variety of programs within; creating a collective research culture between the school’s many learning clusters and design disciplines.

The Jockey Club Innovation Tower was a finalist of the 2014 ‘Best Tall Buildings Awards’ by the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat and received a Commendation of Merit at the Structural Excellence Awards.
