Designers of 2023 Tree Upcycling Annual Exhibition — Mani & Yin The 2023 "Tree Upcycling" Annual Exhibition has successfully concluded. The theme of this exhibition is "Integration of People and Trees", a roving exhibition lasting about 8 weeks was held at the Jockey Club – Conservancy Green Gallery and Causeway Bay Times Square. We hoped that visitors can learn more about local trees, upcycling and sustainable development concepts. Exhibition venue decor creates a wooden space full of natural atmosphere which allows visitors to enjoy a moment of relaxation and calmness. Are you curious about the exhibition designer behind it? You may not have guessed that the design of this exhibition was the work of two young students from the Hong Kong Institute of Design, Mani & Yin. Yin expressed that she hopes to echo the theme of the exhibition "Integration of People and Trees" by adding elements related to tree forms, visitors will be reminded of trees as soon as they enter the exhibition, really feel the spark created by the fusion of trees and design craftsmanship. Mani added, "In addition, we have divided the exhibition area into three major exhibition areas: "Local Trees", "Transformation and Regeneration", and "Social Co-Creation", visitors can learn more about the connection between people and trees and what upcycling is, and to convey the message of "turning local trees into social treasures" to the public."
