When a trip is truly extraordinary, we bring more home than souvenirs. The mark of a great vacation is returning rejuvenated and inspired, re-energized to imagine our living spaces and environments in a new way. Next time you’re abroad, take note of the settings that catch your eye—historic infrastructure, vibrant transportation, evocative landscapes—and see what these views spark in your own creative processes.

Spend only a few hours in Hong Kong and you’ll feel the pulse of the colors that keep this city moving. Whether it’s the intensity of the Central Neighbourhood, the playful pastels of the Kowloon Peninsula, or the breathtaking landscapes that surround the city, there are many things to appreciate about Hong Kong’s memorable palette. Here, we take inspiration from the city’s hues to direct home design.
