Chinese New Year with ADAM

RTHK Radio 1 selected one of the iconic artworks “The Mother's Shelter” from ADAM resident artist Liu Tung-mui as their Chinese New Year red packet design. The unique use of red packet colour is distinct from traditional design, bringing an extra stylish element to the red packets. ADAM wishes you a prosperous year of the Rooster!
