Grasp the tail of green spring
Bai Junyi said no prairie fire can burn the grass utterly, it grows again when the spring breeze blows.
Some of the celebration projects of Design Council of Hong Kong Design from last year have gradually come to a close, but our blazing fire to promote design is never dying. We hope to ride on the glow from the 50th anniversary and bring you more exciting design events this summer though to winter. Let’s live every day like a fresh bath in spring breeze.
抓緊青春的尾巴
白居易云野火燒不盡，春風吹又生。
香港設計委員會去年的部份慶祝項目經已徐徐落幕，但我們推廣設計的熾熱之火不變，希望承繼50周年的餘溫，於今個寒暑為你帶來更多精彩的設計活動，讓你日日如沐春風。
Shall I Compare Thee to a Spring Day
The project From Mass Production to Scale Customisation, which began in early spring last year, has now officially come to an end. The 12-month project, including the thematic workshops, a pavilion and seminars, works like the life-giving spring breeze and rain, bringing significant research insights to Hong Kong industrial design professionals and manufacturers in the form of an electronic guidebook, which will be published on 31 March 2019 on Design Council of Hong Kong website for interested parties.
春風十里不如你
由上年初春開始的量產客制化項目至此正式圓滿結束。歷時12個月的項目活動春風化雨，包括專題工作坊、展覽及研討會等為香港工業設計專業和製造商帶來研究的甘露，將於2019年3月31日結集成電子版指南上載至香港設計委員會網頁公諸同好。

The Blossoms of Collaborations
After the baptism of spring rain, the flowers that have been washed by frost and snow are now sprouting.
The「DesignXcel」 2018 collaborations were presented at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre at DesignInspire 2018, bringing the fruits of co-creations to life. Under the shower of the spring rain, the new collaborations are ready to blossom in another season. The「DesignXcel」 2018 Mini-Exhibition will be held from 1 – 5 May, 2019 at the 125th China Import and Export Fair (Canton Fair), allowing the new collaborations to flower at the Greater Bay Area.
展里有花春不老
經過春天雨水的洗禮，讓經過霜雪洗滌的百花露出了新芽。
《設計列陣》2018 協作成果於去年年底在香港會議展覽中心 DesignInspire 2018 被展出，將協作故事和合作成果帶入生活。在春雨的淋浴下，協作得到新的洗禮和塑造，迎接着另一個花季。《設計列陣》2018 小型展覽會於2019年5月1日至5日假第125屆中國進出口商品交易會（廣交會）舉行，將新的協作延伸到大灣區盛開綻放。
Design Strategy | The Blooming Road of Flowers
Since the 1950s, Hong Kong has been changing over different times (local service needs of the 1950s; the industries and economy were particularly strong during the 1960s and 1970s; with the Hong Kong factories moving north in the 1980s and 1990s; and the rapid development of science and technology from the millennium onwards), many corporates have deployed different design strategies for different times. A successful strategy is what enables a business to go further and prepare the corporates to step on the blooming road of flowers!
“The Roadmap of Design Strategy for Hong Kong Manufacturing SMEs” (RDS) research team has now accessed more than 30 corporates/manufacturers in different industries (jewellery, watches, clothing and fashion, furniture, printing etc.). Eventually the insights of the p50 cases of the research study will be published and shared with the target audience together with the tool kit at the launching ceremony in mid-2019.
設計策略 | 璀燦花路
香港從五十年代至今，一直隨著不同年代的變化（服務本土所需的五十年代；工業及經濟蓬勃的六、七十年代；香港工廠陸續北移的八、九十年代；科技快速發展的千禧年代），不少企業的設計策略運用亦有所不同。只有成功的策略，才走得更遠，讓企業發展踏上璀燦花路！
「香港製造業中小企設計策略之路」(RDS) 研究團隊目前已經與不同行業（珠寶、鐘錶、製衣及時裝、傢俱、印刷等等）的30多間企業/製造業進行訪問。最終50個案例的研究精華將會輯錄成指南和工具箱，於2019年中舉行指南發布會與目標觀眾分享。
