You've probably checked out Potato Head Folk, on Keong Saik Road, and noticed its colourful, interesting interiors. And maybe you've also been to the one in Bali, too.

Now, Potato Head Hong Kong is open! The 8,000sqf place is designed by renowned Tokyo-based architect Sou Fujimoto.

Fujimoto explores the concept of inside and outside spaces in one of the most densely populated cities in the world.

For the facade, he makes use of structures inspired by traditional Hong Kong window frames.

The lounge features a mix of customised, Indonesian furniture with Mid-Century Modern classics and antique pieces.

Suspended from the ceiling, over the cosy lounge area, are stainless steel planters that help to create the illusion of a floating forest.
