The Mills is a landmark revitalization project from Nan Fung Group. Through an extensive architectural conservation process, the historic make-up of the original factory buildings was preserved and transformed, now collectively known as The Mills. These buildings witnessed Hong Kong’s manufacturing heyday in the 1960s, and now carries on that legacy with a future of applied creativity and innovation.

One of the visions after the revitalization of The Mills is to promote Techstyle (technology + style), where themes of textile, fashion, textile and technology are woven into experiences of innovation, culture, and learning through different events and souvenirs.

Reflecting the curatorial mission of CHAT (Centre for Heritage, Arts and Textile) at The Mills, CHAT Shop is the destination for textile and culture lovers who appreciate curated merchandise from Hong Kong and the Asia-Pacific that embodies the heritage and innovation in the culture of making. Signature collections of CHAT Shop include CHAT Originals, which are thoughtfully designed products often produced in-house or in collaboration with prominent international artists and local collaborators. Our collections aim to present our visitors with meaningful souvenirs to continue the CHAT experience.
