In Hong Kong, pride lives in the way we work: in craft, in precision, in perseverance. This editorial honors a centuries-old heritage. Our city is one of the last places where scaffolding still rises against the skyline
Shot months before the devastating Tai Po fires, this story now carries a different weight. We are deeply aware of the pain those tragedies caused and do not wish to diminish the loss experienced by victims and their families- which is why we chose to wait before sharing this work. The fires revealed vulnerabilities: in material limits, in safety management, in systems that must do better.
Yet they also revealed something else: a city that shows up for one another, a community that gathers in moments of crisis, resilient and united. Above all, Hong Kong pride lives in the way we hold each other up. This is both farewell and celebration: a recognition of fragility, a reclaiming of pride in something uniquely ours, and a cherishing of the community that defines our strength.
