Elite Impact, a French fashion company, established its buyer office in Kowloon Bay’s new commercial district in 2009. The 3,000 sq ft. office was completed within 2.5 months, serving as both a working office and a showroom to connect with factories and suppliers in Mainland China.

The design emphasized an artful, French-inspired aesthetic, aligning with the company’s creative DNA. Contemporary furnishings, bold accent colors, and modern lighting fixtures created a vibrant yet professional setting. Artworks—including abstract oil paintings and French café-inspired graphics—were deliberately displayed throughout the office, reinforcing the company’s cultural identity.

Spatially, the office balanced functionality with creativity. Glass partitions maximized natural daylight while maintaining transparency and connectivity. The seaview backdrop offered an inspiring environment, complementing meeting zones, display areas, and breakout corners. A dedicated showroom showcased garments and fashion accessories, strengthening the space’s role as a buyer hub.

Ultimately, the project reflected Elite Impact’s philosophy of merging business with artistry, ensuring their workplace not only functioned efficiently but also projected an intense cultural atmosphere.
