View Larger Image and Additional Photos of KWONG Heung Wing, JohnAbout KWONG Heung Wing, John : When diverse cultures and subjects collide, interesting new designs can emerge. In this scenario, Mr. John Kwong, an architect devoted to sailing, integrated oriental maritime heritage with modern yachting by incorporating recent technology into junk ships dating back to the maritime silk route. The result is LeFang, a new brand of oriental sailing vessel that inherits the safety of junkrig ships as well as the comfort of modern yachts.
