The vision of the Jockey Club Innovation Tower presents a unique opportunity to re-examine and address a creative, multidisciplinary environment. The design concept, in its first instance, collects the variety of programs of the school. Having undergone a strict process of examination of the multiple relationships amongst their unique identities they have been arranged in accordance to their ‘collateral flexibilities’.

Being the first on-campus technology showroom in a university in Hong Kong, HoI showcases PolyU’s most notable inventions and research output, allowing visitors to gain understanding of its research strength and expertise. Many of the exhibits exemplify fruitful knowledge transfer and successful commercialization of PolyU’s research outcome

The university earned an Honorable Mention in the 2011 UNESCO Asia-Pacific Awards for Culture Heritage Conservation for the meticulous rehabilitation and careful conservation of this majestic site. SCAD transformed the courthouse into a state-of-the-art centre for art and design education while honoring the structure's historic and cultural significance.
