  • Hong Kong Design Centre Unveils ‘From Memory to Horizon: The Visual Language of Hong Kong Tourism’

    A Landmark Exhibition Exploring Seven Decades of How Hong Kong Told Its Story to the World

    HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 30 April 2026 – Hong Kong Design Centre (HKDC), with the Cultural and Creative Industries Development Agency (CCIDA) as lead sponsor, proudly presents ‘From Memory to Horizon: The Visual Language of Hong Kong Tourism’. On view from 23 April to 6 July 2026 at The Design Museum, DX design hub, the exhibition is led by designer David Lo as lead curator, with design artifact collector John Wu as co-curator. Tracing how Hong Kong has, since the 1950s, carefully shaped its tourism image and city identity through design, imagery and storytelling, the exhibition highlights the foundations of Hong Kong’s international presence. In collaboration with partners across aviation, hospitality and the creative industries, it showcases rare visual archives the distinctive value of Hong Kong design.

    Tourism has long been woven into the fabric of Hong Kong’s identity, embodying the spirit of a ‘city of hospitality’. Yet the cross-regional appeal did not emerge by chance. Long before the age of the internet and social media, countless people who had never set foot in Hong Kong were inspired by a poster, a hand-drawn illustration, or an advertisement to feel a desire to visit. This very question forms the core theme and starting point of the exhibition.

    Ms. Rainy Chan, Executive Director of Hong Kong Design Centre, remarked: ‘This exhibition, built on a rich collection of historical visuals and stories, underscores the profound role tourism has played in shaping Hong Kong’s identity. “From Memory to Horizon” reflects Hong Kong Design Centre’s mission to champion creativity through cross-sector collaboration, showcasing how design connects our shared heritage with future opportunities. We invite both local and international audiences to engage with the enduring spirit and ingenuity of Hong Kong, and to appreciate how the city’s visual language of tourism continues to inspire new possibilities.’

    Curators David Lo and John Wu added: ‘For decades, we have rarely paused to closely examine how visual design, language, and creative strategies have been used to present Hong Kong to the world. The aesthetics behind these efforts are both elegant and precise. Through Western eyes, Hong Kong shines as a dazzling, multifaceted “Pearl of the Orient”; through local eyes, it embodies deeply rooted values and memories. This exhibition offers audiences a chance to experience Hong Kong anew, through intersecting visual narratives that reveal how design has shaped its global image.’

    Five Themed Spaces: A City in Motion

    To present the richly layered urban landscape of Hong Kong, the exhibition is organised into five thematic zones. From the very first step, the exhibition design gently transports visitors across time and space, guiding them on a carefully choreographed visual journey.

    Zone 1 – The Names of Hong Kong:

    Every story begins with a name. As visitors enter, a cascade of titles and typographic forms unfolds. From ‘Fragrant Harbour’ to ‘Pearl of the Orient’, each nickname reflects a particular era’s identity and imagination for the city, serving as a calling card that Hong Kong presented to the world at different moments in its history.

    Zone 2 – Hong Kong is Our Home:

    This zone features promotional materials from local carriers and official association to show how Hong Kong was simultaneously constructed as ‘home’ and ‘destination’. From the abstract, exotic visuals of the 1950s and 60s to the more vivid and realistic cityscapes of the 1980s and 90s, Hong Kong was portrayed as a source of pride for its residents and a place of longing for those who had never set foot here.

    Zone 3 – Hong Kong in the Movies:

    Using hand-drawn illustrations in the style of movie posters, this zone weaves Hong Kong’s everyday urban scenes into a collage of a complex, multi-faceted city. Iconic Eastern and Western characters set against the Victoria Harbour skyline reveal how cinema transformed ordinary street scenes into irreplaceable visual symbols in the memories of audiences worldwide.

    Zone 4 – Hotels and Tourism Visions:

    Long before international chains arrived, homegrown hotels played a crucial role in bridging East and West. The film ‘The World of Suzie Wong’ brought the century-old hotel Lok Kwok Hotel (now known as Gloucester Luk Kwok Hong Kong) to global attention, turning it into a pilgrimage site for film lovers. From The Peninsula Hong Kong and Mandarin Oriental, Hong Kong to the now vanished The Excelsior, Hong Kong, hotel brand identities and graphic design allowed visitors, from the moment they arrived, to experience Hong Kong’s distinctive blend of luxury, business efficiency, and cosmopolitan urban life.

    Zone 5 – Green Horizons:

    Hong Kong has never been only neon lights and skyscrapers. Beyond the city’s glittering façade lies another Hong Kong – one revealed along long-distance hiking trails, in Mai Po, and across the country parks, where mountains, forests, mudflats, and wetlands also featured in tourism imagery. These natural landscapes remind us that Hong Kong has always been more expansive than we tend to imagine.

    Exhibition details:

    Exhibition Name: From Memory to Horizon: The Visual Language of Hong Kong Tourism
    Exhibition Period: 23 April to 6 July 2026
    Opening Hours: 11 am – 7 pm (Closed on Tuesdays, except Public Holidays)
    Venue: The Design Museum, 2/F, DX design hub
    280 Tung Chau Street, Sham Shui Po, Kowloon

    Disclaimer for the Exhibition Zone ‘Hong Kong in the Movies’:

    The illustrations presented in the ‘Hong Kong in the Movies’ zone are original, independently commissioned artworks created as a design tribute to Hong Kong cinema culture. They are not official reproductions of any film, and are not endorsed by, affiliated with, or authorised by any actor, studio, or rights holder.

  • 香港設計中心呈獻 《旅港維度——香港旅遊的視覺語言》

    跨越七十年標誌性的展覽　探索香港如何向世界展現城市故事

    香港 – Media OutReach Newswire – 2026年4月30日 – 香港設計中心（HKDC）在文創產業發展處（CCIDA）主要贊助下，隆重呈獻全新展覽《旅港維度——香港旅遊的視覺語言》。展覽於2026年4月23日至7月6日期間假DX設計館設計博物館舉行，由設計師盧永強（David Lo）擔任主策展人，聯同設計文物收藏家胡兆昌（John Wu）共同策展。展覽回溯自1950年代以來，香港如何透過設計、影像與敘事精心構建城市形象，逐步奠定香港向世界展現國際身份的重要基石，並與航空、酒店及創意等界別夥伴攜手合作，呈現珍貴的視覺典藏，彰顯香港設計的獨特價值。

    旅遊業一直是香港身份的重要支柱，承載著「好客之都」的精神。然而，這份跨越地域的吸引力並非憑空而生。在沒有網路或社交媒體的年代，許多從未踏足香港的外國人，卻因一張海報、一幅手繪插畫、或是一則廣告而萌生前往香港的渴望。這正是展覽的核心命題與出發點。

    香港設計中心行政總裁陳娜嘉女士表示：「這個展覽匯聚了豐富的歷史影像與故事，突顯旅遊業在塑造香港城市身份中所扮演的深遠角色。《旅港維度》充分體現香港設計中心致力透過跨界協作推動創意發展的使命，展現設計如何連結集體文化與未來機遇。我們誠邀本地及國際觀眾一同參與，感受歷久常新的香港精神，並欣賞旅遊視覺語言如何持續啟發無限可能。」

    策展人盧永強（David Lo）與胡兆昌（John Wu）分享：「多年來，我們鮮有停下腳步，仔細審視視覺設計、語言，以至創意策略如何被運用向世界呈現香港面貌，這些努力背後的美學表達出優雅而精準的內涵。從西方視角中，香港往往是一顆多元璀璨的『東方之珠』；而在本地人眼中，它則承載著深厚的價值與集體記憶。展覽為觀眾提供重新認識香港的契機，透過交織的視覺敘事，展示設計如何塑造這座城市的國際形象。」

    五大主題空間見證城市故事

    為呈現香港層次豐富的城市面貌，展覽劃分為五大主題區域。從踏進展廳一刻開始，觀眾猶如穿越時空，展開一場被精心編排的視覺旅程。

    展區一 — 香港的名字：

    故事從一個名字開始。踏入展區，一些曾經定義香港形象的稱謂與字體迎面而來。從「香江」到「東⽅之珠」，每一個別稱都是一個時代為這座城市賦予的身份與想像，也是香港在不同時期向世界遞出的名片。

    展區二 — 香港是我家：

    透過本地航空公司及官方旅遊相關的宣傳素材，呈現香港如何同時被建構為「家」與「目的地」，從五、六十年代帶點抽象與異國情調的圖像，到八、九十年代愈趨真實鮮活的城市風景，既是本地人引以為傲的歸屬，也讓從未踏足的旅客心生嚮往。

    展區三 — 電影中的香港：

    此展區以電影海報風格的手繪插畫，將不同的日常生活場景交織，拼貼出一個多元而複雜的香港。多個經典的東⻄方⾓⾊座落於維港海岸線，映照電影如何把日常平凡場景，昇華成全球觀眾記憶中難以取代的視覺符號。

    展區四 — 酒店與旅遊想像：

    在國際連鎖品牌湧入之前，本地酒店早已肩負連貫中西的角色。電影《蘇絲黃的世界》把百年酒店六國飯店（現稱六國酒店）推向國際，成為影迷朝聖之地。從香港半島酒店、香港⽂華東⽅酒店到已成追憶的香港怡東酒店，它們的品牌形象與平面設計，讓旅客在抵埗的一刻，便直觀感受到香港同時具備奢華氣度、商貿效率與都會生活節奏的獨特氣質。

    展區五 — 綠⾊地平線：

    香港從來不只是一片霓虹與摩天大廈。當繁華謝幕，另一片香港沿着四大長途徑、米埔與郊野公園蜿蜒展開，山巒、森林、泥灘與濕地層層交疊，這些畫面曾出現在昔日的旅遊宣傳畫面之中，如今再次提醒大家，香港一直比我們想像中的更遼闊。

    展覽資訊：

    名稱： 《旅港維度——香港旅遊的視覺語言 》
    開放日期： 2026年4月23日至7月6日

    HKSTP Deepens Southeast Asia I&T Ties at MTX 2026, Signs Inaugural MoU with Singapore’s TechX

    Having led 100+ Hong Kong tech firms to SE Asia over the past year, accelerating global expansion through strategic collaboration

    HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 30 April 2026 – Hong Kong Science and Technology Parks Corporation continues to deepen its innovation and technology (I&T) collaboration with Southeast Asia, actively playing an orchestrating role in supporting Hong Kong’s tech firms go global. HKSTP debuted as an official exhibitor at Southeast Asia’s largest public safety conference, Milipol TechX Summit 2026 (MTX 2026). Under the theme “Supercharging Innovation for Our Safer Tomorrow”, MTX 2026 is a strategic platform to advance business opportunities through government-backed collaboration. HKSTP showcased 10 park companies presenting breakthrough public safety solutions and signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Singapore’s TechX Ventures (TechX, a private subsidiary by the HTX – Home Team Science and Technology Agency of Singapore) — HKSTP’s first MoU signed with an organization in Southeast Asia — establishing a structured framework to advance cross-border innovation partnerships focused on practical applications in public safety.

    HKSTP debuted as an official exhibitor at Southeast Asia’s largest public safety conference, Milipol TechX Summit 2026 (MTX 2026). Eric Or, Chief Ecosystem Development Officer and Gladys Oon, Director of Partnerships and Account Management of HKSTP, officiated the opening of HKSTP Pavilion.
    HKSTP debuted as an official exhibitor at Southeast Asia’s largest public safety conference, Milipol TechX Summit 2026 (MTX 2026). Eric Or, Chief Ecosystem Development Officer and Gladys Oon, Director of Partnerships and Account Management of HKSTP, officiated the opening of HKSTP Pavilion.

    Singapore and Hong Kong share a substantive relationship, grounded in regular high-level engagement. These include the Prime Minister of Singapore’s official visit to Hong Kong last month, during which he met with the Chief Executive of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region and visited the Hong Kong Park of the Hetao Shenzhen-Hong Kong Science and Technology Innovation Co-operation Zone (the Hong Kong Park in the Loop). The I&T connection also features HKSTP-led delegations to Singapore platforms such as Singapore Week of Innovation and Technology (SWITCH) and SLINGSHOT 2025, etc. Over the past year, more than 100 HKSTP park companies explored Southeast Asian opportunities, securing over HK$25 million in confirmed business deals with additional potential contracts exceeding HK$20 million directly supported by HKSTP.

    Eric Or, Chief Ecosystem Development Officer, HKSTP, said, “At HKSTP, we enable innovators to solve real public safety challenges where trust and demonstrated results matter most. Collaborating with TechX and Singapore’s Public Safety ecosystem gives ventures faster access to decision-makers, enables solution testing in operational environments, and supports scaling validated technologies across Asia.”

    Eric Chua, Chief Executive Officer, TechX Ventures said: “SPINN District was designed to be more than a startup village — it is a proving ground where bold founders showcase innovations that matter. Seeing HKSTP’s park companies engage meaningfully with the global public safety ecosystem at MTX 2026 reflects exactly the kind of cross-border momentum we built this platform for. This MoU marks the beginning of something lasting: a structured pipeline that turns innovation into operational impact, as we work together to build a safer world.”

    The collaboration between HKSTP and TechX is aimed to establish a comprehensive framework to identify, co-create, and validate operational public safety solutions. Under the partnership, HKSTP and its counterparts will move from identified needs to real deployment through annual solution scouting visits to Hong Kong Science Park, funding of around HK$600,000 (S$100,000) per company for proof-of-concept trials with Singapore Public Safety experts, and an ongoing exchange of challenges and insights. This demand-led model accelerates problem-solution fit and reinforces HKSTP’s leadership in regional safety technology collaboration.

    The HKSTP Pavilion, themed “Hong Kong’s Technology for Public Safety and Security — Global Application and Global Impact,” featured 10 park companies showcasing solutions proven in deployments across Hong Kong enforcement departments, the Greater Bay Area, and Singapore-related projects. Cutting-edge public safety technologies were showcased across AI-Driven & Robotics, Network & Communications Infrastructure, and Drones, Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) & Low-altitude Economy (LAE). MTX is the largest public safety conference in Southeast Asia, the HKSTP pavilion is strategically positioned within the startup-centric SPINN District, effectively facilitated targeted engagements, secured curated matching opportunities with Singapore government agencies for each participating company, and advanced pilot projects and partnerships.

    Park companies eSIX and Weitu AI participated in the signature global innovation challenge Dimension X Cohort 6 and the inaugural cohort of the In-Beta tech verification capability programme organized by Hatch, the innovation centre of Singapore’s HTX, achieving significant success. These companies were the only Hong Kong representatives selected for the programmes, underscoring the global competitiveness and real-world impact of Hong Kong’s innovation ecosystem. eSIX, which delivers patented high-speed networking for Industrial IoT and 5G-enabled remote machine control, was awarded a place at Dimension X. The company received S$100,000 in prize money to complete a four-month proof-of-concept and was invited to showcase its solutions. Weitu AI, which provides world-leading multimodal video understanding for fast, accurate analysis across industries was awarded a place at In-Beta, received S$30,000 in prize money with opportunities to verify their promising tech through rapid experimentation and onsite demo.

    Building on existing engagement across the region, HKSTP will continue to strengthen collaboration with regional partners, expand support for park companies, and promote technology‑driven solutions that enhance safety and resilience. The initiative reflects HKSTP’s ongoing commitment to fostering sustained innovation and regional cooperation.
