HONG KONG TYPOLOGY
AN ARCHITECTURAL CITY GUIDE
Find hidden architectural gems of the 20th century that other travel guides will never take you to.
Hong Kong Typology is a collection of building information which leads you to more than 40 buildings in Hong Kong, some of which will soon disappear.
The result of an academic research in eight cities, these original city apps for architects, building enthusiasts and travellers have been conceived by Christ & Gantenbein and their team at ETH Zurich. This inventory of metropolitan and essentially ubiquitous 20th century buildings exposes a systematic yet subjective compilation of urban architecture around the world. The result is a rich database of great practical value for students, lecturers and practitioners of architecture, comprising more than 350 buildings in all.
Seven more city guides are available on the AppStore: Athens, Buenos Aires, Delhi, New York, Paris, Rome, São Paulo.
Each Typology comes with:
- facts and figures
- contextual and historical insights
- floor plans and axonometric drawings
- recent photos
- map locator
App Features:
- Building Index
- Map of All Locations
- Favorite Building List
Find all content and more in the two “Typology” monographs published by Park Books.

Ratings and Reviews
Seems like a lot of effort wasted
Obviously compatible with OS 11 (or else it wouldn’t open at all) but nothing happens past the title holder. Such a bummer, was looking forward to using it.
Not working on iPhone X
I really like the idea of exploring architecture on your phone but this app no matter which city series I tried, does not seem compatible with my iPhone X. Nothing follows after I open the app, none gesture is resulting in any interaction. How come? Really disappointed. I thought this was going to make my trip to HK more meaningful. Not seem likely to happen.
Works with older iOS. Needs update.
Works with iOS 10 but not 12. Nice labor of love. Intriguing buildings and info.
