Kwai Shing West Estate is a residential complex in Hong Kong that is home to 18,000 people. It attracted the attention of filmmaker and photographer Pascal Greco because of its architecture and its atypical hillside construction. This book presents the fruits of a ten-year harvest, and captures this strange fascination through both photography and film, accessible via a QR code.

The book
”As in all Pascal Greco's photographic works, the precise framing sublimates the banality, of facade, of the subjects. By taking the time to stop and observe these architectural witnesses, the photographer induces a certain form of "aesthetic exhilaration" that is absolutely fascinating.”
Olivier Wyser, La Liberté

The film (available only inside the book via a QR code)
“With the film Kwai Shing West Estate, Pascal Greco and musician Lea Bertucci have produced an impressionistic and above all impressive audiovisual work.”
Philippe Simon, Le Temps
