KIOSK HELLO

Hi all, I’m Michael, a designer and beekeeper from Hong Kong. I’m in New York for a couple of months and I’m happy to let you know that I’ll be working at KIOSK on Tuesday and Wednesdays. On other days, I’m working as a farmer on Brooklyn Grange, running with the Bridge Runners and visiting […]

Nathan just wrote us with a video made of the Wooden Toy Sticks (here) and some colored strings and it’s great! I just wish the sticks could do that on it’s own whenever you all come in for a visit. Don’t miss his site if you feel gloomy and need to be cheered up. Need […]

Here I am sitting dreaming of certain things we ate in Hong Kong while I pour over dim sum possibilities for tomorrow. I thought one of the best things I could do right now to get the fantasy of eating in Hong Kong out of my system would be to show others some of the […]

We are now getting ready to put Hong Kong in the shop! It was a great trip. Hong Kong is both a wonderful and tragic glimpse into the future, both completely inspiring and terrifying and loud and urgent and malls and population density and pollution and really wonderful, wonderful people. These two ladies sum it […]
