meraki design

meraki design is a niche brand in Hong Kong that focuses on Japanese and Ethnic styles, established in 2020. The founder and designer, Kristy Chow, is a full-time office lady and a member of the "90後" generation, with a background in jewelry design and metalworking from Hong Kong Baptist University.

The brand name "Meraki" [may-rah-kee] is derived from Greek, meaning to do something with passion, soul, and creativity, putting a piece of yourself into your work. In Cantonese, it can be interpreted as "博盡無悔," which implies dedicating oneself wholeheartedly to a task and persistently pursuing it with joy.

Kristy has always maintained a full-time job while balancing her personal brand in her spare time. Her design style is diverse, encompassing everything from minimalism to bold and innovative glamorous designs. Each piece aims to evoke emotions and tell a unique story, making every creation a reflection of personality and individual style, which attracts many customers who appreciate handmade and unique designs. In addition to her Instagram account, she participates in handmade markets every weekend and has recently been actively involved in overseas markets to promote her brand.

Ultimately, choosing to do what we love and living life at our own pace is a way of life for us. In everyday life, there are many small things that may seem insignificant but are essential. In our designs, we strive to bring these subtle details to life.

以日系風格及民族風為主題的香港小眾品牌meraki design,成立於2020年。創辦人及設計師Kristy Chow是全職白領,亦是「90後」,畢業於香港浸會大學珠寶設計及金工製作。

品牌名稱是meraki [may-rah-kee] 是希臘語,意指專心投入你熱愛的事,傾注熱情、靈魂和創意去做一些你愛的事,套用廣東話的意思,即是「博盡無悔」,全心全意做一件事,然後持之以恆,樂此不疲地去完成。

Kristy一直擁有全職工作,只在工餘時間兼顧個人品牌,由於設計風格多元化,從極簡風格到大膽而創新的華麗設計都包攬。每一件作品都旨在觸動情感並講述獨特的故事,使每一件作品都成為個性和個人風格的反映,因此吸引不少喜歡手作及獨特設計的客人。除了Instagram 賬戶,每逢週六日就去參加手作市集,近年更積極參與海外市集推廣其手作品牌。

最後,我們選擇做自己喜歡的事、用自己喜歡的節奏過日子,對我們而言是生活的一種態度;生活中,有很多細小的事物或許不起眼,不重要但卻不可缺少。在設計上;我們堅持把這些不起眼的小細節發揮得淋漓盡致。
