Similarly to Tokyo, the urbanscape of Hong Kong is largely conceived by colourful signs. (Refer to 001_empire of signs at http://urbanomania-jp.blogspot.com) The formation of signs is so dense that they constitute another 3-dimensional layer over the one of buildings. However, one dissimilarity is that the signs in Hong Kong are spanning horizontally across the streets while the ones in Tokyo creeping up vertically on the building facades. Yet again, the erection of these flying propagandas is made possible by bamboo scaffolding.
