Its design and ethos honours the rich and multicultural heritage of the Sham Shui Po district as a traditional hotspot for clothing and textile wholesale and retail. It aims to inject positive momentum into the fashion and creative design industries by striving towards three main objectives: nurture emerging design talent and fashion designers in Hong Kong; leverage Sham Shui Po’s heritage to become a focal point for design and fashion both within the district and throughout the city; and further the development of tourism in Sham Shui Po.

Located at 280 Tung Chau Street, Sham Shui Po, the Hub spans five levels from the ground floor to the fourth floor and occupies a total area of 3,600 square meters. The fourth floor will serve as the headquarters for HKDC, while the ground floor to the second floor comprise the publicly accessible zones: The Square, The Fashion-Pop, The Gallery, The Box, The Design Museum, The Annex and The Steps. Designated zones on the third floor, including The Lounge, The Barn, and The Fashion Spotlight will function as a comprehensive resource centre for the design community. The wide-ranging facilities in the Hub will support a diverse programme of transdisciplinary design-related activities such as exhibitions, workshops and seminars. These facilities aim to make design more accessible to the public, facilitate communications and resource sharing within the design and creative sectors, and cultivate creative and collaborative opportunities for society at large.

Opening to the public on 4 December, the Hub will be kicking off numerous design-related programmes from the time being to next year.
