The Arts Pavilion is located in the exhibition center of Hong Kong's West Kowloon Cultural District, also the location of the M+ Pavilion designed by Herzog & de Meuron, the emblem of Victoria Harbour in the Chinese metropolis. The setting presents the intuitions and visions of young designers, working with traditional processes and modern 3D printing techniques in a multiplicity of materials: wood, glass, metal, textiles, cork, resins.

In the words of Marva Griffin Wilshire: “Bringing a part of the SaloneSatellite's Permanent Collection to Hong Kong is not just an opportunity to raise awareness of the work of many talented young designers, but also to celebrate global creativity and the importance of innovation in design. The cultural exchange underlines the fundamental role of the SaloneSatellite in enhancing and supporting the new protagonists of the international project. And it is the finest way to conclude a year of celebrations for its 25th anniversary”.
