This more fascinating Hong Kong is not found in its dazzling skyscrapers that overlook old junk boats crossing Victoria Harbor, in its open-air dai pai dong where global financiers in bespoke suits eat lunch at plastic tables, or in the nostalgic images of neon-drenched Kowloon streets.

事实上,这座城市的精髓往往隐匿于世人视线之外:正是那些非凡却鲜被歌颂的公共基础设施,铸就了香港独一无二的城市奇迹。这些塑造战后初期城市肌理的构筑体系,将在2025年威尼斯建筑双年展香港官方展览《
筑迹未来:香港城市档案》中得以呈现。展览将揭示这座城市数十年来如何通过其常被忽视的建筑与都市成就,超前应对当今全球城市共同面临的紧迫命题——从气候变化的应对、极端密度的管控,到公共空间中市民文化生活的维系。
Rather, this city is found in places the world does not often look: in the extraordinary but unsung public infrastructures that make Hong Kong the singular urban miracle that it is. These infrastructures that have shaped the city in the early postwar decades will be showcased in "Projecting Future Heritage: A Hong Kong Archive," Hong Kong's official exhibition at the Biennale Architettura 2025. The exhibition will reveal how the city's often-overlooked architectural and urban achievements have for decades fulfilled the pressing mandates that cities around the world now face, like combatting climate change, managing extreme density, and maintaining a cultural life for citizens in shared public spaces.

呼应总策展人Carlo Ratti提出的"智慧·自然·人工·集体"双年展主题,策展人区伟耕、周颖彤与刘舜雯将聚焦体现香港范式转移的公共基础设施集体智慧。精选项目包括综合大楼、屋邨中心、街市综合体及公屋——这些由本土建筑师设计却鲜被记录、研究或国际共享的构筑物。其中不少(包括传统村落)已濒临重建或停用,使其成为香港未来遗产的孤本标本。
