Last of the HK set - SCAD HK

One of the few out of the ordinary things I did in HK was visit the SCAD (Savannah College of Art and Design) campus.
My good friend Regine studies there and she was nice enough to tour me around (Twice! Cause the first time, I didn't have my camera)


Let me just say, that for a small school, it's a pretty bad ass place to study in. I wish I had gone to a school as inspiring as this place. (Maybe I will! Gives me a reason to live in Hong Kong!)


See more pictures under the cut!


It's an old prison/courthouse, and they decided to keep a lot of the old interior and architecture. This is a courtroom, which is also where they do their presentations.






My tour guide, Regine


There was this very unique looking chair that I wanted to sit IN (like inside).


Turns out it bends and you actually sit ON TOP of it!






This is their student lounge







And apparently, the artworks usually change (per semester I guess), so the inspiration never ends! And the students are some of the coolest people I've ever met too!
