The Making of Hong Kong:
3D pedestrian network as the critical walking infrastructure
The three-dimensional pedestrian network, enabling multi-level city living in a vertical metropolis, is a fundamental consideration in urban planning and design practices for high-density cities.

"My research interests focus on the ways in which different people experience, interact with, understand nature, and the desire to see a more holistic approach to planning and designing urban greenspace and green structure for public health and wellbeing. I was trained in sociology, housing design and landscape architecture"
