Bruce Lee's home restoration plans

THE exhibition of plans to restore kung fu star Bruce Lee's former home opened on Saturday in Hong Kong, showcasing creative ideas from professionals and the public around the world.

The competition, launched on July 20, 2009, aimed to turn the former residence of the late Bruce Lee into an attraction to commemorate Lee's contribution to martial arts and film.

The competition received 140 entries both local and from overseas and the winning entries will be exhibited until March 6.

The winning entries provide creative ideas and concepts to restore the residence and to maximize space for facilities, such as an exhibition hall, audio-visual room and library.

The entries also showcased Lee's renowned philosophy on martial arts, "as you think, so shall you become," said Rita Lau, the Secretary for Commerce and Economic Development of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region.

"We would continue to collect information on Bruce Lee and exhibits for the future facility, with a view to enabling the restored residence to capture the life story of one of the greatest legends of our time," she said.
