About Katol

As a Hong Kong artist, Katol had his claim to fame from his exceptional graphic design. Being the co-founder of Social Nerd and Coffee & Laundry, he has worked with hundreds of brands and artist studios around the globe. In recent years, he researched hand-painted sign lettering techniques, combining them with his experience in graphic design to create a unique and personal sense of style. Aside from continuous multidisciplinary collaborative efforts, his recent signature creation of hand-painted signage had garnered praise from the local artist community. Katol adores traditional Hong Kong culture and has always sought inspiration from it. His work adorns multiple local shops and restaurants.

關於Katol

香港藝術家Katol 以其出色的平面設計而聞名,作品遍佈本地的大小商店及餐廳。作為Social Nerd及Coffee & Laundry的聯合創始人,他曾與全球逾百個品牌及藝術單位合作。近年,他用自己身為平面設計師的經驗,鑽研手繪看板字體技術,融合成獨特個人風格。除了長期以來跟不同界別的合作以外,他最近的手寫招牌創作更是獲得了本地藝術家的青睞。Katol 亦鍾情於本港傳統文化,會在創作時從中汲取靈感。


Art Too

‘Art’ lives in every corner of Lee Gardens, inviting passersby to be surrounded by its spirit. ‘Too’ speaks to both togetherness and tools - the shared instruments of creativity that turn observers into creators. HKWALLS has collaborated with Hysan to offer the public a captivating variety of art and cultural experiences throughout the festival.

「Art」存在於利園的每個角落,路人無不被它的精神所感染。 「Too」有「團結」的意思,亦指「工具」(Tool) ─── 兩者合一併發創意,將各位觀看者轉化為創造者。HKWALLS與希慎興業希望能夠在藝術節期間共同為公眾提供豐富多彩的文化和藝術體驗。


100 Years of Lee Gardens

For a century, Lee Gardens has been the venue where art and culture touch lives and memories are made. From the Bei Shan Poets Society flourishing in a taipan house with over 130 literary members, to the glamorous era of Lee Theatre hosting world-class performances and beauty pageants, our artistic spirit has evolved across generations.

Today, as Hysan Development celebrates Lee Gardens’ 100th anniversary with the ‘Art Too’ festival alongside HKWALLS, that creative spirit lives on through vibrant murals and artistic spaces. Each artwork tells a story of transformation, celebrating the community that has made Lee Gardens a cultural home for generations. As they enter their next century, we look forward to creating tomorrow’s memories in this garden of joy.

利園一百週年

一個世紀以來,利園一直以藝術和文化觸動生活、創造回憶。從一百年前「大班屋」內蓬勃發展,擁有一百三十多名成員的北山詩社,到全盛時期舉辦世界級演出和選美比賽的利舞臺戲院,得見利園的藝術精神生生不息,代代相傳。

時至今日,在希慎興業與HKWALLS攜手舉辦利園百週年慶「Art Too」藝術節之際,這種創意精神透過充滿活力的壁畫和藝術空間而得以延續。為此而誕生的每件藝術品都講述了一個關於「轉變」的故事,頌揚利園內薪火相傳、豐富多樣的本地社區文化。我們期待與你在這個樂園歡聚,創造明日的回憶,共同迎接下一個世紀。
