L'Appuntamento, Hong Kong
Hong Kong store L'Appuntamento bridges casual womenswear, art and vintage furniture, transforming a studio space in the middle of industrial Chai Wan into an elegant showroom.
Irene Capriz, founder of Casa Capriz, says of the collaboration with Tangram and Platform China HK: "Tangram’s designs are full of colours and prints, and it gives a very interesting contrast against this old furniture."
"From vintage Louis Vuitton trunks to a mahogany English gentleman’s wardrobe dated around 1910, and wrought iron four-poster bed converted into a clothes rack, each piece has its own story; and by putting them in this space with modern clothing and art, they have added a new value and story to tell."
