The Chinese Methodist Church North Point

Designed by Szeto Wai, the Chinese Methodist Church North Point was built in 1966 and has  served the local community in North Point and Quarry Bay ever since. It is a signature example of brutalist architecture. The church is situated on the hilly terrain of Healthy Street East, which lends the building an air of solemnity and dignity. With its accordion-shaped rooftop, hexagonal beams along the sides, and exaggerated geometry, the pillar-less interior complements the functions of the church, providing an ideal place for worship and public assembly that is both simple and practical.

The guided tour will be led by architect Stuart Chen, who will introduce the features of the building and how it exemplifies brutalism.
