Author Information

Juliana Yat Shun Kei is a Lecturer in Architecture at the University of Liverpool. Her works investigate the use and abuse of environmental notions in architecture, with a focus on 20th-century British architecture. This interest is derived from her previous research into the post-modern and preservation turn of British architecture through the career of British South-African architect Theo Crosby. Her upcoming project, building on this current research on the invention of the ‘built environment,’ examines the changes in British architecture and urbanism engendered by the establishment of the Department of the Environment in 1970. Her other research focuses on Hong Kong’s architectural and urban culture. With Daniel M. Cooper, she completed a survey of the disappeared Vietnamese refugee camps in Hong Kong in 2022. She is a co-founder of the Hong Kong Design History Network.
