A Creative Oasis We Call Home.

As a design agency based in Hong Kong, we have had the pleasure of working in various neighborhoods across the city. However, Shek Tong Tsui stands out as a neighborhood that truly captivates us. Located in a vibrant and up-and-coming area of Western district in Hong Kong Island, Shek Tong Tsui offers a unique blend of trendy eateries, boutique shops, and cultural attractions that cater to a diverse community. Its distinct character, reflected in its old and new architecture, artistic vibe, and sense of community, makes Shek Tong Tsui a special place to live, work, and create.

Firstly, Shek Tong Tsui has a unique mix of old and new buildings. This contrast creates an interesting dynamic that is perfect for the kind of creative work we do. We love the challenge of working with historical architecture while also incorporating modern design elements. It’s a delicate balance that can be challenging, but also very rewarding.

Another thing we love about Shek Tong Tsui is the sense of community. Unlike some of the more touristy areas in Hong Kong, Shek Tong Tsui has a real neighborhood feel. There are local shops, restaurants, and markets where residents gather to socialize and catch up. It’s a welcoming, friendly environment that is perfect for fostering creativity.
