 The results of a competition to transform the former home of legendary martial arts superstar Bruce Lee into a site honouring his legacy have been released.
The Organising Committee of the Ideas Competition for Bruce Lee's Residence on January 23 announced the results of the competition after two months of careful deliberation.
The competition was launched on 20 July last year and jointly organised by The Hong Kong Institute of Architects, The Hong Kong Institute of Planners and The Hong Kong Institute of Surveyors, supported by the Tourism Commission. The competition received an overwhelming response of more than 140 valid local and international entries.
The competition comprised two categories - the Professional Group and the Open Group, with prizes presented to the winners at an official ceremony.
A spokesman for the Tourism Commission said the winning entries would provide very creative ideas and concepts to restore the residence to its original appearance and to maximize the use of space to provide an exhibition hall, audio-visual room, kung-fu corner, library and souvenir counter.
"The competition was a step forward in taking forth the restoration project. The Tourism Commission will further discuss with the owner of the residence, Mr Yu Pang-lin, various issues that would bring the project to fruition.
"Efforts will also be continued to gather information and source exhibits from various channels, including Mr Lee's family members and friends, to make this facility a real showcase of the life of the late kung-fu star," the spokesman said.
Competition entries will remain on public exhibition across Hong Kong until March 6.
