Look at how beautiful this apartment is in Discovery Bay (HK) that I found on interior design website, Homedit?! I love the white walls and natural materials used that look to contrast to the bursts of colour around the room from the panels on the walls and the carpet. The space was done by Head Architecture and Design.

I love product design. In my past life I must have been a designer. I take such pleasure in a product’s design, colour, texture and integration of form and function.
When I was travelling in Hong Kong, around the corner from my hotel in Causewaybay was a store called Emoi Life. It caught my eye because of its resemblance to the Japanese home/lifestyle store, Muji. Clean, minimalist aesthetic, Emoi Life products are affordable and fun. Walking through the store invoked thoughts of if Club Monaco (emoi life uses a lot of black, white and grey), Umbra and Muji got together to produce products, Emoi is what they would look like. It turns out the Emoi Life is a brand from China and they have locations in Shenzhen, Beijing and Hong Kong. Expand across the Pacific Ocean! I like your stuff. They have a blog here if you can read Chinese.

Look at this beautiful cake store in Hong Kong! Only in Hong Kong can you find a dessert store so over the top in decor and design. I am off to Hong Kong this week and have been doing a bit of research into spots I want to visit and this is one is high up on the list.
The shop that caught my attention is called Ms. B’s Sweets and it is part of Sevva (pronounced Savour) the 13,000 sq ft space restaurant/club, located on the 25-floor penthouse of the Prince Building in Central in Hong Kong. Sevva is divided into four areas including the Bank Side, Harbour Side, Taste Bar and the Terrace and Ms. B is part of the complex.
The picture below is the home of Ms. B’s Sweets where confections are decoratively displayed in glass display cases. The most stunning part of the store is the huge chandelier, originally designed for the British embassy in Rome in the 1950s illuminates the chamber.
Ms. B’s owner, and the creator of Sevva, is Bonnie Gokson. If you are not familiar with this name, look her up. Her CV boasts a long line of successful creative endeavours in the fashion and luxury goods industry including a stint as Chanel Asia Pacific’s former communications director which has certainly helped Sevva gain lots of attention not to mention her sister is Hong Kong fashion guru Joyce Ma, who brought European style to Asia when she founded the upmarket Joyce Boutiques in the 1970s.

I lived in Hong Kong for a year and there is no shortage of parties and event resources in the city.
Should you ever have the opportunity to plan a wedding or party in the city that never sleeps, I would recommend checking out www.myhkwedding.com
The site has tones of resources on flowers, venues, dresses, gifts and anything else you should need to pull off a successful party.
I would recommend looking at the florals from Kim Chan Flowers and Gary Kwok Flowers.
