 Chord Residential

Chord

Chord is an apartment interior located in a low-density residential building in Kowloon Tong, Hong Kong. The layout supports both remote work and family life. The living room contains a multifunctional performance area that serves as a home cinema, a library and a space for a grand piano. Concealed doors and a sliding corridor door separate the zones and improve sound insulation. A semi-enclosed foyer with hidden shoe cabinets and wardrobes forms a calm buffer at the entrance. Light-toned elm veneer, herringbone stone tiles and marble unify the rooms.

Chord Residential by Handover Studio Ltd. was selected as a creative example of architectural design by the A' Design Award & Competition. Chord Residential was awarded the Bronze A' Design Award in Interior Space and Exhibition Design in 2026. The A' Interior Space, Retail and Exhibition Design Award is a juried, academic and highly prestigious design accolade which honors excellent design of residential interiors, restaurants, hotels, offices, galleries, retail stores, showrooms, exhibition spaces and more.
