“Heritage Journey - Architectural Journey”

Concept

““Architectural Journey” showcases the progression of Hang Seng’s vareous headquarters over the years, using a stylized composition that tells a story about the bank’s expansion in a fun and unique way. Starting from the left, the image uses the interior and exterior of Hang Seng’s original gold-trading shop in Sheung Wan to act as a starting point of a path that will eventually lead Hang Seng into modern times and the coming future. This path takes the viewer past its 1960’s-built Nexxus Building (formerly known as the “Hang Seng Building”) to the company’s current, Central-based headquarters and beyond.” - Andreas von Buddenbrock
