CL3 ARCHITECTS LIMITED STUDIO, Hong Kong

For young designers and/or architects who want to open their own business with limited budget, here's some ideas to inspire and motivate you all. Don't worry, sometimes money is not everything if we smart enough to re-use them wisely and attractively!

The use of old retail store doors is back to trend again with a little touch of effort: white paint! And don't you see that, the fish lantern that you can buy affordably in Hong Kong flea markets. It was originally for chinese festivals such as Chinese New Year, etc, only creative people will bring them in to decorate their offices.

Different styles of stools found in flea market can be pretty without any finishes. Don't afraid to combine them in a meeting table, or creative "table" area.

Ta da! Can you play ping pong? If you ever play ping pong, you'll recognized the blue table on the image above. In Hong Kong, most of people can play ping pong, it's their main sports! Most of the families in Hong Kong have ping pong table used as a sport area, as well as dining table. Oh well, maybe sometimes for working table?!
