"Preserving Craftsmanship, Inheriting Skills, Reviving Small Shops"
Many old shops and traditional crafts are forced to close due to urban redevelopment, rapid economic transformation, and high rental costs, leading to the loss of community economy and historical culture. REstore has established a social enterprise physical store to bring small shops back to the community; the closure of a storefront does not mean the end of an old shop.
- Background of the Old Shop -
Chiu Kai Advertising, Master Mak Kam-sang, an old shop in Jordan.
The plastic signs on the windshields of public light buses (Red Vans) display information such as destinations and intermediate stops. In the past, everything was handwritten on these signs, even fares were marked with "flower numerals." Master Mak Kam-sang has been involved in advertising design since he was 15. Since 2016, he has collaborated with REstore and is now the only master in the local area who handwrites public light bus signs. He enjoys incorporating new elements into traditional products and has partnered with REstore to launch trendy slogan public light bus sign keychains, luggage stickers, and more.
