Special thanks to our venue sponsor Eslite Bookstore Causeway Bay, and of course, to everyone who joined us, your presence made the evening truly meaningful!
During the dialogue, Yan shared how she incorporates locally sourced Hong Kong wood into her designs, transforming discarded offcuts into thoughtfully crafted furniture. Cecilia reflected on her experience collaborating with designers, highlighting both the challenges and opportunities from a printing house perspective.
