DESIGNINSPIRE: DESIGN FOR GOOD
‘Designinspire Design for good’ highlights positive impact of creativity
Organised by the Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC), DesignInspire ONLINE will be held from 3 to 9 December, showcasing global designs from Hong Kong, Mainland China, Japan, Korea and Australia to both trade and public visitors.
“Design for Good” theme presents quality designs for life
Under the theme “Design for Good”, this year’s DesignInspire aims to deliver positive energy to society through quality designs and innovations that can help overcome adversity amid the pandemic. A series of creative projects led by local designers and design groups will be on display including furniture and home gadgets that can brighten people’s stay at home; creative artworks about Hong Kong-style “staircase stores” found in old walk-up buildings and paintings on iron roller-shutter doors that demonstrate local culture and traditional craftsmanship; and ceramics and fibre art created by people in recovery and rehabilitation.
Online interactive experience inspires creativity
DesignInspire ONLINE will bring together nearly 30 interactive projects and games that integrate digital technology with creativity. These will present extraordinary visual, audio and gaming experiences that can help to inspire a more creative outlook.
The InnoTalk series, to be live-streamed via Zoom and YouTube, will be held over the course of the week-long fair period. Topics will cover industry-specific trends such as visual and short video marketing, enhancing the digital customer experience and engagement, as well as practical business tips for designers. There will also be a variety of workshops suitable for parents and children including handmade gift workshops. The materials required for the workshops will be mailed to participants after they go through a simple online registration process.
Access to DesignInspire ONLINE is free for both trade and public visitors.
Date: 3-9 December 2020
