Saint-Gobain Architecture Student Contest 2026 – Hong Kong Stage
Date: 08 May 2026

Co-organised by The Hong Kong Institute of Architects (HKIA), the Saint-Gobain Architecture Student Contest 2026 – Hong Kong Stage wrapped up successfully on 8 May at the HKIA Premises. Nine university teams from across Hong Kong and Macau showcased creative and highly innovative proposals for the construction and renovation of a recreational area in Belgrade, Serbia. The calibre of work was exceptional, leaving a lasting impression on both our esteemed jury and the audience.

 

The Winners

After intensive deliberation, Lau Kai Yan Carmen, Fung Wing In Ingrid, and Liao Ho Ngai from The Chinese University of Hong Kong were named the National Winners.

In addition to a prize of HK$10,000, the team has earned the prestigious honour of representing Hong Kong at the International Stage in Belgrade this June. We congratulate them on their remarkable success and wish them the very best for the upcoming final stage of the competition in Serbia.

 

Knowledge Sharing: Sustainable Architecture

Beyond the competition, students joined an insightful expert-led panel discussion titled “Sustainable Architecture: Designing Delight for Tourism & Recreational Projects” The seminar provided a deeper understanding of how to balance environmental responsibility with the aesthetic and functional demands of modern leisure spaces.

HKIA would like to thank all participants, mentors, and jurors for their immense efforts. We look forward to seeing your continued growth and hope to see you again next year!
