介绍
Taking reference from the magnifying glass used for gemstone examination and jewellery-making, Loupe is a design incubation space founded by Chow Tai Fook Jewellery Group and fully supported by Chow Tai Fook Art Foundation to discover and foster new generations of jewellery design talents.
Focusing mainly on jewellery-making and design, Loupe is dedicated to the nurturing of young talents with its in-house design residency program, as well as public workshops led by industry professionals. It aims to provide a creative environment dedicated to the art of jewellery-making and craftsmanship.
There are 5 key elements at Loupe:
Exhibition: For emerging artists to showcase their works, sharing their visions and aesthetic through jewellery, design and different art forms.
Residency: Our Design Residency Programme is a comprehensive mentorship scheme. We provide guidance and a fully-equipped workshop to young jewellery design talents, enabling their own creations and career development.
Education: We host an educational programme as a platform for exchange and public engagement in design and craftsmanship. We offer a wide array of seminars and workshops each month to ensure there is always something new for everyone.
Boutique: Our Boutique carries the exclusive design products created by our in-house craftsmen, Designers-in-Residence and up-and-coming jewellery design talents.
Teahouse: A place to chill and dine, guests can immerse in the artistic and creative ambiance while sipping on a selection of premium teas, coffees and savour delicate pastries and cakes and more.
