INTRODUCTION I come from Hong Kong where there are many skyscrapers. In most districts, new architectures have replaced historical monuments.
The buildings look identical with the absence of vitality. Therefore,
I found the mixture of modern and antique buildings surrounds the
Union Square is fascinating. A place itself will not be special without the footprints of human. Each story that happens in the Union Square attracts me to discover more.
We shape our buildings; thereafter they shape us. 窶標inston Churchill
I think we have to leave in order to really miss a place. I leave my hometown in order to pursue my dream as a graphic designer. In
these two years of my college life, I travel back and forth between
Hong Kong and San Francisco frequently. I found myself being able to find the beauty of my hometown. I can feel the essence of it now.
