Squeezed & Stacked in Hong Kong

Book Design


“Squeezed & Stacked in Hong Kong” is a book project that examines the living conditions of Hong Kong’s grassroots communities. Through two essays and a recurring section documenting Mr. Chan’s daily routine, the work reveals the compressed and constrained realities faced by residents in the city’s densest spaces. It invites readers to feel the pressure, limitation, and human stories embedded within Hong Kong’s 
extreme urban density.


    (Background)


    Hong Kong’s extreme housing density forces           many grassroots residents into cramped                     subdivided and coffin-sized rooms—sometimes       even into tiny columbarium niches after death.         This project reflects on this lifelong experience         of spatial compression.
    

 (Typographic Approach)



    Shifting Font Weights: Reflects the density of    

    Hong Kong’s stacked buildings.

     
     Text Confined Between Two Horizontal Lines:          Mirrors the boundaries of narrow living spaces.
     Tight Letter-spacing: Conveys a sense of                    pressure and confinement.
