Home is where the heart is - on a quiet little street in Hong Kong



Hong Kong is one of the most densely populated places on earth. Seven million people share just over 1,000 square kilometers of land.  In this crazy capitalist city that I have come to love, development had gone vertical many, many decades ago. It is not easy, but if one looks hard enough, he or she could always find a home somewhere in these islands. After 13 years of living in Hong Kong, when it came for me to move flats two years ago, I knew exactly where I wanted to be. Here, on this quiet little street, I found my home. All it takes is to walk up to one whole floor of me.









I wanted my apartment to have a "New York feel". I also wanted to keep some of the Asian/Oriental pieces that I've collected over the past ten years. At the same time, I was aiming for a somewhat more modern vibe. To achieve this, I asked Richard to design and style my apartment. Later, to document all that,  I asked Xavi to take the following pictures.
