这些住宅可能看上去梦幻离奇，但是对于700万为了住房空间而挣扎的居民而言，它们已是香港成千上万人的家了。

杰森说：“这些香港公寓楼开始成为这座城市现代城市景观的特征。”

'The flats cover a broad range of architectural styles and layouts all designed with a common aim - to provide housing for as many people as possible in a relatively small, densely populated urban space.
“这些公寓建筑风格和布局多样，但是它们共同的设计初衷就只有一个——在一个相对较小人口密集的城区为尽可能多的人提供住房。”
