"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 economies and historical culture. REstore establishes social enterprise physical stores 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 -
Jordan District Old Shop - Kiu Ka Advertising Master Mak Kam-sang
The plastic signs on the windshields of public light buses (red minibuses) display information such as destinations and intermediate stops. In the past, these were all handwritten on plastic plates, even the fares were marked with "Hok-mau" (traditional Chinese numerals). Master Mak Kam-sang has been involved in advertising design since he was 15. He has collaborated with REstore since 2016 and is now one of the few remaining masters who handwrites minibus signs. He is happy to incorporate new elements into traditional products and has collaborated with REstore to launch trendy minibus sign keychains, luggage stickers, and more.
