CURATOR
Stanley Wong, also known as anothermountainman, has worked in the creative industry for over 34 years and is the recipient of more than 600 Asian and international awards for his art, design, photography and advertising work.
Inspired by the emotional, colourful history of Hong Kong and the story of a city in transition Wong’s will you come back… exhibition is as much an attempt to chart the past as it is an attempt to savour the present, as well as explore an imagined future. Made up entirely of art by Hong Kong artists, the permanent collection includes pieces hand-picked by the curator from The Pawn’s founders’ existing collections as well as pieces commissioned specifically for this project.
BRANDING
Max Dautresme started his career with the prestigious Christian de Portzamparc, atelier of architecture in Paris, and later spent several years in New York, Miami, Shanghai and Hong Kong with TBWA, Ogilvy & Mather and DDB. In 2011 he established the branding and design consultancy agency Substance in Hong Kong, now with a presence in Paris and Stockholm.
RESTAURANT FURNITURE DESIGN
Michael Young graduated from Kingston University in 1992 and quickly became one of the UK’s most sought-after young designers. Revered institutions such as the Conran shop and the Pompidou Museum began demanding his work. He became known in the industry as a sophisticated minimalist acclaimed for his elegant, pared-down design, which was in direct opposition to the elaborate style dominating London at the time.
After nearly a decade working across the UK and Iceland, Michael set up a studio in Hong Kong in 2006. Today Michael Young Studio is considered to be one of the most exciting and formidable design companies operating in Asia, responsible for designing award-winning icons for its clients that last a lifetime and are presented in museums globally.
