Description

Side By Saai is a place-making project in Shek Kip Mei about solar drying (saai), which aims to strengthen the connection between different generations. Solar drying is a common behaviour among grannies in the old urban district. Is it possible to be a shared activity between them and the youth? This project reinterprets this living culture as a social activity in public space by enhancing and extending the experience. There is a space transformation carried out by the temporary modular facility, allowing different activities about “saai”. There are 3 zones: saai, sell, and share. The saai zone allows neighbours to dry their food hygienically and conveniently; the sell zone allows neighbours to sell the dried food in new packages; the share zone allows neighbours to share the recipe. Modernising the activity, it is hoped the new generation can understand and involved.
