History Reborn – CLP HQ Revitalization Project: St George's Mansions
2022-05-03

For more than 20 years, OPTIMIX has been playing a role as building material supplier in our society's different historical building conservation and revitalization projects. The ever-standing architectures are the witnesses of changes of era, other than the Central Market revitalization project we introduced earlier, let us show you the CLP former HQ reconstruction co-developed by CLP and Sino Group – St George's Mansions.

A big highlight of this project is the co-existence of conservation and residential development, preserving the rare historical value of Kadoorie Hill. The renowned architect Robert Stern deeply understands this landmark as a collective memory, he cleverly planned to rebuild part of the old CLP HQ complex on the original site into 25-storey residences, while revitalizing the clock tower, which is listed as Grade 1 historical building, and set up two museums and the office of The Hong Kong Heritage Project. The layout and façade design of the new buildings also echo to the proportions, details, materials, textures and colors of the clock tower to achieve a sense of coherence, harmony, and continuity.

In addition to participating in the creation of countless modern and futuristic skyscrapers, OPTIMIX is also an expert in building neoclassical architecture. This project adopted a lot of European natural stone from outdoor to indoor with the help of the OPTIMIX plastering and tiling system, including BP126 Base Plaster, TA328 Tile Adhesive (Flexible), and TG410E Tile Grout (High Performance). It is worth noting that, in order to match the architectural style, the tile grout is selected from OPTIMIX's special and wide range of made-to-order colors. More than just the common black and white, OPTIMIX tile grout is available in more than 20 regular colors and fine/coarse textures, and can even be customized for large-scale projects to meet various design styles and texture requirements.
