Art means function meets green

What happens when art meets function meets green? A contemporary and elegant multifunctional space and office that brings together the key values of Hactl: sustainability and corporate heritage. We embarked on an ambitious project to refurbish the office of Hactl, Hong Kong's largest air cargo terminal, after 20 years in the building designed by Norman Foster. The former meeting space was transformed into a guest area resembling a contemporary art gallery with concrete grey as its primary colour and a large window wall providing a spectacular view of Hactl's iconic multi-floor storage system. Inside the gallery, we paid homage to Hactl's staff by drawing on iconic industry elements to create a number of handcrafted art and furniture pieces. Partnering with local woodworking studio Coutou and local industrial design studio Mr Hammers, we upcycled disused materials found in the terminal such as wooden pallets, restraint strap and unit load device, reflecting Hactl's commitment to sustainability and heritage. The former partitioned office was also transformed into a lively open-plan work space to facilitate staff interaction. We are proud to be part of Hactl's unique story and to share its legacy as a pioneer with both guests and staff.

藝術，就是實用與價值的結合

能夠想像過一個藝術、實用與可持續性優雅地互相融合的空間嗎？HACTL為全香港最大型的空運貨站，在由霍朗明男爵（Norman Foster）設計的建築物中，我們為HACTL的翻新項目設計了既具現代感，又能融合可持續價值與企業歷史的多用途空間和辦公室。我們將過去的會客室，轉化成一個帶有現代藝術館質感的空間。在水泥灰調的空間中，透過加入巨大的玻璃幕牆，可以猶如藝術品一樣，觀看HACTL標誌性的多層式航空貨箱儲存系統。我們亦使用了空運業的元素，與木工工作室草途木研社、工業設計工作室Mr.Hammer升級再造客貨站的資源如木卡板、緊固帶和集裝器等，創造了多種傢俱以至藝術品。向HACTL員工致敬之外，亦展示了HACTL對於可持續價值和企業歷史文化的重視。此外，我們亦將HACTL的區間辦公室轉化成開放式辦公室，以加強員工的互相交流。我們非常自豪能夠參與這項計劃，分享、傳承HACTL的獨特故事。
