Satellite Event Type: Design Talk / Workshop

Moving beyond style, design concept, or furnitures; the true luxury to space is about the emotion and experience, something that can be felt, react to, and even have an influence to the person within. Such experience and interactions between human, design, and all the tidbits are powerful and impactful; however a multifaceted task to realise. From emotion, human familiar and design practice, Ed Ng, Principal & Co-Founder, AB Concept, will share anecdotes from the front lines with concrete examples that are relevant even beyond the design of spaces.

Expanding upon the success of last year’s inaugural series, the 2017 discussion forum will be titled “Fabpublic! – Talking about Textile, Community and Public Space.” Internationally renowned artists, designers, textile specialists, curators, scholars and cultural practitioners from a wide range of disciplines and expertise will gather in Hong Kong to discuss the role of the community within contemporary living, exploring the value and impact that textiles, and its related production, can bring to traditional “brick and mortar” neighbourhoods.

Keynote lectures will be headlined by acknowledged Spanish designer Alvaro Catalán de Ocón, Founder of PET Lamp, an upcycling anthropological project accentuating preservation of craft knowledge and tradition; and Dutch Senior Architect Aura Luz Melis, Partner of Inside Outside.
