Images Of This Skyscraper City Will Blow Your Friggin’ Mind


To say Hong Kong is crowded is an understatement. Over seven million people are squeezed into just 1108 square kilometres. And boy, in some places it’s a tight squeeze.

As website China Smack pointed out, the city has 6588 high-rise buildings, which is more than New York’s 5818. Hong Kong truly is a “skyscraper city”.

In Architecture of Density, German photographer Michael Wolf captured the city’s most cramped residences. They look more like concrete curtains than dwellings. The photos are unreal.

Have a look at Wolf’s work from the past few years, courtesy of the M97 Shanghai Contemporary Photography Gallery.
