Initiated in 2010, East Gathering (EG) was formed as a tri-city event featuring top interior designers from Tokyo (Japan), Seoul (South Korea) and Hong Kong. The event consisted of exchange program through various format such as seminars and student workshops. Jointly founded by the Hong Kong Interior Design Association (HKIDA), the Japanese Commercial Environment Designers Association (JCD) and the Korean Society of Interior Designers (KOSID), the program has been successfully running since 2010 and it comes to the 8th edition this year in 2019 and will be taking place in Hong Kong.
The EG family has been growing bigger ever since founded and we had Chinese Society of Interior Designers (CSID) from Taiwan joined in 2016 and Society of Interior Designers Singapore (SIDS) participated in 2018 respectively. The East Gathering has been growing from an evolution of featuring the most experienced and renowned Interior Designers/ Architects and since the 6th Edition in Taipei we shifting more focus on fostering young and up-raising designers.
The event aims to attract design professionals, design students and the general public by making them aware of the aesthetics and philosophy of Asian interior design.
