Hong Kong in Brief
Brand Hong Kong’s visual identity — a powerful and energetic dragon — was designed to communicate the city’s historic link with a mythical icon. The image incorporates the Chinese characters for 'Hong Kong' (香港) and the letters 'H' and 'K'. This dual expression symbolises the blend of East and West that characterises Hong Kong. The dragon's fluid shape imparts a sense of movement and speed, communicating that Hong Kong is forever changing. The brandline — ‘Asia's world city’ — highlights Hong Kong's multiple roles as an international business hub, a gateway to economic opportunities in the mainland of China and Asia, and a center for arts and culture.
