- More than a dozen Inspiring Designs under Three Themes
The exhibition explores new possibilities and innovative solutions to build a more livable and happier city. Under the themes of PLAY, LIVE and INSPIRE, more than 20 up-and-coming Hong Kong designers, who come from different design disciplines, present 16 life-inspiring creations and installations to promote the philosophy of "Happy City."
Under PLAY, designers transform the city into an enjoyable play area by introducing unconventional applications of ordinary objects and materials. LIVE features fresh and creative spatial designs, and unique furniture for home living. INSPIRE showcases a series of innovative designs that promote inner peace and happiness.

Happy Innovations is a prelude to DesignInspire, which will showcase global design and creative projects by more than 220 creative entrepreneurs and elites from 11 countries and regions. Through an array of interactive displays and products, the theme pavilion Urbanovation: Co-create A Happy City, highlights how design-driven innovations can shape urban living.
