Bamboo Scaffolding Coaster Set (The Grid/The Knot/The Text) — Hong Kong Design

"The Details That Build a City." The Story | This trio pays homage to the ingenuity and artistry of Hong Kong’s bamboo scaffolders. Just as a massive structure relies on small details, these vibrant coasters celebrate the three elements—the Grid (structure), the Knot (craftsmanship), and the Text (nostalgia) reimagined from the craft: 1. The Grid: The rhythmic, architectural lattice that adapts to any terrain. 2. The Knot: Inspired by the "twisted knot" (扭髻結)—the scaffolder’s mark of mastery. 3. The Text: The custom typeface "香港竹棚", restored from 1950s-60s Hong Kong newspaper headlines for a wave of nostalgia. The Object | Printed in bold, saturated hues of azure, tangerine, and emerald on durable cotton canvas , these coasters bring an effortless industrial-chic accent to any table.

This collection captures the soul of Hong Kong’s cityscape. Inspired by traditional bamboo scaffolding, it honors the structures that witness our city's evolution—from the birth of new landmarks to the redevelopment of old districts. Bamboo is deeply cherished here. It is strong yet flexible, upright yet hollow. It embodies the "Kongish" spirit: in the face of relentless challenges, we adapt swiftly, refuse to break, and keep growing against all odds. We have translated these elements—the Grid (structure), the Knot (craftsmanship), and the Text (nostalgia)—into everyday objects. Using the azure, tangerine, and emerald hues of the city’s vibrant skyline, this collection is a tribute to Hong Kong’s quiet resilience. ＊＊＊ About the Brand in a nutshel. is a Hong Kong brand founded in 2025, crafting originally designed home pieces that celebrate Hong Kong’s unique cultural aesthetics.
