A Glimpse of Community Building in Transitional Home
Our bamboo multipurpose rank is designed for easy construction with the residents together in transitional housing. Often laundry facilities are lacking in transitional home. The ranks are build by residents with our guide, and subsequently modified by adding details and repaired by residents - showing their sense of responsibility to the community facilities, thus building up a sense of home.
The rack is well used with great demand, and currently there are six on Concordia Tsat Sing Kong Transitional Housing. More are to be made with the residents due to the high demand!
Design: Maggie Ma, Cathy Leung, Kylie Wong
