Innovation Tower
Jockey Club Innovation Tower is a building of the Hong Kong Polytechnic University. It was designed by Pritzker-prize-winning architect Zaha Hadid. This building is her first permanent work in Hong Kong. Originally expected to be completed by the end of 2011,〔(PolyU appoints Ms Zaha Hadid as Architect of "Innovation Tower" ). Polytechnic University, Hong Kong. 12 December 2007.〕 it was not finished until mid-2013.〔(Jockey Club Innovation Tower at Hong Kong Polytechnic University: Topping-out ). Zaha Hadid Architects. 4 October 2012.〕
==Aesthetics==
Zaha Hadid's firm won the competition to design the building in 2007. The competition brief called for "a beacon structure symbolising and driving the development of Hong Kong as a design hub in Asia." She and her team took as their guiding principle the "collateral flexibility" between the departments to be housed in the building. Their solution was to "dissolve ... the classic typography of tower and podium to create a seamlessly fluid new structure ... creat() a building which is inherently organised and understood to visitors from the point of entry."〔
Athletic fields surrounding the building were razed to create a new surrounding landscape. The main pedestrian entrance was placed at podium level, as with the other buildings on campus. A long pathway from nearby Suen Chi Sun Memorial Square to an open foyer creates a focal point, where the building space opens to shops, a cafeteria, museum, and exhibition area.〔
