On 20 April 2017, DDP also launched its pop-up store at PMQ. This creativity exchange project between PMQ and Seoul Design Foundation (SDF) aims to facilitate the dialogue between emerging talents in Hong Kong and South Korea, and enhance the cross-border partnership between cultural institutions in the two cities.
DDP is a multi-cultural complex in Seoul which has staged diverse cultural events and continues to actively promote new design trends. PMQ is a creative landmark in Hong Kong nurturing the city's emerging talents with a zest for creative design and innovation. Through this collaboration, PMQ and SDF hope to open up an international platform for designers of both cities to exchange with one another and to provide them an overseas market to reach new audience, fostering the conversation between two unique cultures.
