Design Dialogue
International Collaboration: Craft by Nature
When discussing sustainability, we often talk about the closed loop that stretches out indefinitely, but what about the loop of knowledge that gathers creative minds to whip up new solutions?
Join Biobased Creations, Elaine Yan Ling Ng and deTour 2023 curators, Chi-wing Lee and STICKYLINE for an in-depth discussion on the current global trends in sustainability and potential localisation in Hong Kong. Celebrating our worldwide effort and collaboration, we hope to open up conversations and find new possibilities for crafts and traditional industries.

Passionate about design education, he is currently a visiting lecturer at the School of Design of Hong Kong Polytechnic University, and helms various design education programmes at the PMQ and the Hong Kong Design Centre.
