A unanimous judging committee in City & Port's open P-House competition has awarded KHR Architecture a procurement of the proposal P-House 3.02, which was made in collaboration with sub-consultant Golder.

Comments of the Judging Committee:

"The proposal is distinguished by using wood as the main material expression in the facade of the P-house, so that passers-by can sense the scent and tactility of the material, while being reminded of the historical layers of the site in a modern expression. The proposal is highlighted for its ambition to sustainable facade of locally collected recycled wood, assembled in sections that form a beautiful relief and with a green superstructure that finishes the facade with a generous gesture".
