The Hong Kong Polytechnic University’s School of Design (PolyU Design) proudly presents the PolyU Design Show 2025, running from 6 June to 8 August. This highly anticipated annual event showcases over 250 design projects by undergraduate and postgraduate students that reflect a seamless integration of technology, creativity, and social relevance.
Held under the visual theme “Zero Anew – Journey Unfolds”, the exhibition represents renewal and creative evolution. The projects span topics such as AI-driven urban safety systems, drone-enabled healthcare logistics, zero-waste solutions using food waste, and community design for animal welfare. These innovations reflect the students’ commitment to interdisciplinary thinking, environmental responsibility, and human-centric design.
At the opening ceremony on 6 June, thought leaders including Prof. Kun-pyo Lee, Dean of PolyU Design, and Mr. Steve Leung, Chairman of the School’s Advisory Committee, lauded the students’ role in pushing design beyond conventional boundaries. The show, they noted, balances commercial potential with social consciousness, proving that design is not only aesthetic but essential to shaping better futures.
Ranked 22nd globally for Art & Design (QS 2025), PolyU Design continues its six-decade legacy of nurturing visionary talent. The event is free and open to the public, with prior online registration required. A virtual exhibition allows global audiences to explore student work online at 2025.polyudesignshow.com.
