Abstract :
After training at the Bartlett in London and an influential period working in Itsuko Hasegawaʹs studio in Tokyo, James Law returned to launch his own practice, James Law Cybertecture International, in Hong Kong. Working globally and across media and disciplinary lines, Law has captured the imagination of his home country - he was recently awarded the Microsoft/Esquire Cool Guy Digital Lifestyle Award 2006 by the general public as the personality most symbolic of the new digital lifestyle of Hong Kong. Anna Koor puts Lawʹs brand of cybertecture under the spotlight and describes the mechanism of his uniquely responsive practice.
