At its core, Art House is not a replication of old forms, but an act of translation and reimagination.

Inside, the space resists over-refinement. Floors and walls are left deliberately raw — their patina of wear and age preserved as a kind of lived-in honesty, carrying warmth, time, and trace. Yet Art House is not an exercise in nostalgia. The interior is handled with restraint: white walls, a considered spatial layout, pared-back lighting that draws on the language of traditional transoms and a deep-green Hakka Mansion–style threshold that frames the art at the centre of the experience.

At the rear of the gallery, a floor-to-ceiling bamboo scaffolding structure introduces one of Hong Kong’s most distinctive urban phenomena into the interior. Paired with a velour curtain that runs the full width of the shop, the installation is at once site-specific and spatially generous, forming a richly layered backdrop that channels the improvisational character of the city’s everyday streetscape while lending depth and dimension to the viewing experience.

ArtHouse takes the architectural memory of Hong Kong as its point of departure, reconsidering how a small exhibition space might carry forward the texture of an older urban fabric within a contemporary context.

To articulate this dialogue between past and present, the façade draws on the visual language of the city’s pre-war tong lau, in particular, the Art Deco inflections found across many of these shophouse typologies. The entrance is anchored by a deep-green Hakka Mansion-style door frame with geometric detailing and a full-width sliding gate, paired with matching mouldings and a half-height dado wall. Together, these elements compose a frontage that feels at once familiar and precise, rooted in local vernacular yet distilled into something decidedly contemporary.

ArtHouse Tai Hang is a new contemporary art festival celebrating an international array of creative talents in a unique Hong Kong neighbourhood filled with timeless fascination.

With a planning strategy and spatial design led by .design , the festival activates vacant shops into a carefully choreographed dialogue between art and the city. CGD is delighted to have joined the creative team, shaping 1 of the 10 houses, breathing new life into a forgotten space within the vibrant heart of Tai Hang.

隨著籌備工作進入最後階段,我們誠邀各位一同參與 ,歡慶香港藝術月。

The Comfort Foundry

A Hong Kong-based manufacturer of practical household appliances sought a workspace that distinctly diverged from traditional office norms, blending daily operations with product displays in a warm, approachable setting. The design reflects the brand’s focus on functional, everyday solutions and fosters calm productivity. The result is a “quietly bold” atmosphere where employees and visitors experience the brand’s ethos through both form and function.

We are excited to share that The Comfort Foundry is a finalist in the Small Corporate Office category for Best of Years Awards.

Thank you to the Interior Design team and everyone for your support!

A family-run Hong Kong appliance maker wanted a warm, non-corporate workspace. Inspired by mid-century design and manufacturing details such as clean lines, modular systems, and honest materials, we created a calm and focused environment where daily work and product displays coexist— reflecting the brand’s commitment to functional, purposeful solutions.

Mechanical components are distilled into architectural gestures that subtly organize the workspace. Mold-inspired desks and custom lighting evoke an abstracted foundry, translating the client’s industrial heritage into a serene, meticulously crafted environment. It is a workspace defined by the quiet intersection of form and light.
