This design exhibition was organized by the Hong Kong Design Centre and covered 11 design categories, including architecture, art technology, visual communication, creative ecology and education, fashion, interior design and home furnishings, Hong Kong/international, street culture, systems, tradition/modernity, and emerging designers. The exhibition was held at one of the main venues of "Milan Design Week"—the La Triennale di Milano. It not only showcased the power of Hong Kong design but also served as a window for the international community to see how Hong Kong, with its "continually changing" urban character, has been shaped into the unique and diverse metropolis it is today. The core of the exhibition was a simulated Hong Kong street, where large screens on both sides used multimedia to immerse visitors in the Hong Kong experience, allowing them to feel the city's unique lifestyle and understand how its urban character inspires creativity. Visitors could also use mobile phones or tablets to scan QR codes on the screens to learn about the creative inspiration behind different designs. Furthermore, through the exhibition's smartphone application (Apps), visitors could continue to appreciate and understand the power of Hong Kong design even after leaving the exhibition.
Hong Kong Design Centre Chairman Victor Lo stated: "We are very pleased to bring Hong Kong design to Milan, allowing the power of Hong Kong design to shine on the international stage. Both industry professionals and general visitors have given 'Hong Kong: Changing Continually' high praise. This exhibition also highlights Hong Kong's leading position and influence in the Asian and international design industries."
