World's Outstanding Chinese Designer

As the modern day world continues to look for inspiration in ancient Chinese traditions, multicultural Hong Kong is the ideal forum for this year's World's Outstanding Chinese Designer award. The Award aims to reach out to Chinese designers across the globe, creating a pool of shared knowledge and experience based on common origins. The organiser's vision is that a ripple started in Hong Kong will form a tide reaching every corner of the world where Chinese people are designing. This process will help identify role models who can inspire young Chinese designers wherever they may be.
