Kai Tak City Centre
Inspired by the principles of the formation of Chinese characters, the Consortium took a radical-radical compound 1「沐」as a logogram representing the over-arching design theme of the Public Creatives study.「氵」signifies water and「木」signifies tree or timber and the two components together「沐」signifies washing, being immersed in water or nourishing. The logogram of「沐」 aptly captures the essence of the design theme, a waterside tree nourishing those that make the area its home.
In Kai Tak City Centre, all street names could start with the character「沐」. The second character would be elements taken from existing street naming schemes from neighbouring districts.
