Throughout the years, ArchSD has been supporting the industry and the society through our participation in events and exhibitions. We treasure every opportunity to demonstrate and display our designs and best building practices to industry partners and professionals and at the same time engage and interact with the public community.
Echoing with the theme of 'Innovate for a SmartFuture', ArchSD continued to participate in the InnoCarnival 2018 from 3 November to 11 November organised by the Innovation and Technology Commission (ITC). During the event, our display booth displayed innovative sustainable building designs and our colleagues explained the intelligent designs of our project works to visitors.

ArchSD has continuously supported the annual Hong Kong Flower Show organised by the Leisure and Cultural Services Department (LCSD) since 1990s. The event theme of 2018 is 'Joy in Bloom' and it was ArchSD's mission to design creative and aesthetic landscape features to demonstrate the beauty of the theme flower, Dahlia. Spherical designs and floral art displays allowed our visitors to enjoy the beautiful greenery in our city. This year, we made use of environmentally friendly and recycled materials in our designs to extend the sustainable development message to the general public.

The new school premises are beautiful, comfortable and spacious! With more open space and barrier-free school facilities like student activity centers and multi-purpose rooms for students with special needs, the teaching and learning environment of Kai Oi School has been significantly improved by innovative design. Overwhelmed with appreciation from all stakeholders of the school, including our honored guests, Incorporated Management Committee members, visitors, parents, teachers and students, the reprovisioning project of Kai Oi School supervised by ArchSD is doubtlessly a huge success.
We are glad to have ArchSD overseeing the reprovisioning project, from campus design to post-construction maintenance. The department demonstrated a high degree of professionalism throughout the project. ArchSD has maintained close communication with us and offered technical advisory to tailor-made campus facilities regarding safety concerns of our students. Their representatives even stationed on-site after the completion of construction for around six months to ensure smooth and satisfactory operation of the newly-built campus.
In addition to satisfying our demand for school facilities, ArchSD placed particular attention to adding sustainability elements in the project. For example, the retention of old trees and installation of solar panels on campus. Their effort in conserving the environment is appreciated by the school community. Having both the user and environmentally friendly school environment, we are delighted to organise tours and introduce our campus to all stakeholders. We look forward to future opportunities engaging ArchSD or its contractors in sharing of their sustainable building knowledge and experience. 
Achieving client satisfaction remains the core of our services. We make every endeavor to understand their needs and requirements by continuous communication. Project design and construction methods are also subject to individual case and targeted user groups – we put emphasis on accessibility of campus facilities for Kai Oi School. With our expertise in construction and experience in project management, we are pleased to share the knowledge with our peers in the industry.
