Weekend Markets in Square Mile
Blending elements of tradition, innovation and sustainable living, in 2022 Square Mile continued its weekend market series by providing a platform for local shops and artists of various genres to highlight their creations.
Upholding Circularity
Invited a local craft artist to exhibit her upcycled art creations and hosted online upcycling art workshops which focus on reusing waste/ material to create accessories/ household goods and environmental knowledge-sharing about waste reduction.
Raising Awareness towards Hereditary Cancers
Joined hands with Hong Kong Hereditary Breast Cancer Family Registry, local illustrator Messy Desk and iconic homegrown label Red A Plastic to present an AR-enabling interactive installation in the form of a giant pink lamp shade. The installation served as a symbol to encourage the public to care for their families and the next generation by understanding more about hereditary cancers, family health history and genetic risk, with a view of raising the public awareness of hereditary cancers.

Brought together 40 local brands that reinvent traditional packaging, design and creative processes, featuring minibus signs and mah-jong pieces carved with chic buzzwords, paper-crafted miniatures with a touch of our city’s vibrancy, wearable cha chaan teng food, glass nightlights made out of pressed flowers and postcards reminiscing about local Hong Kong transportations.
