M+ presents the first Design Ah! exhibition organised outside of Japan. An adaptation of the highly successful exhibition at TOKYO NODE, this fun and family-friendly exhibition explores contemporary design and how it shapes our daily behaviors, such as how we walk, eat, sit, and hold objects.

Edible flowers are vibrant, with beautiful and varied appearances. Apart from being used as a garnish, they possess unique flavours that enhance the joy of cooking and the dining experience. In addition to being rich in antioxidants, edible flowers contain natural pigments, such as anthocyanins, which are particularly beneficial for eye health. In this episode, the “Food Fanatics” visit Joey, the owner of a local organic farm, to understand the key techniques and challenges of growing and harvesting edible flowers. They also try the tastes and textures of several varieties, such as crabapple (Malus spectabilis), nasturtium (Tropaeolum majus), borage (Borago officinalis), and marigold (Tagetes erecta), immediately after picking. Chef host Will creates a special dish, “Broccoli and Scallop Gardenscape” bursting with colour and flavour, while teaching us how to preserve edible flowers and offering tips for cooking scallops. Singer-songwriter Catherine WONG also shares her passion for cooking, and consults Dr Kelvin Kam Lung CHONG for eye care tips. Hosts: Karen CHENG, Will LEUNG (Resident Chef) Guests: Catherine WONG, Dr Kelvin Kam Lung CHONG (Associate Professor, Department of Ophthalmology and Visual Sciences Faculty of Medicine, CUHK)

The 400-year-old Shui Hau Village is so inseparable with water that “Shui Hau” means “the outlet of a river”. Nestled between mountains and rivers, Shui Hau Village is surrounded by hills, mudflats and wetland. Villagers used to make a living by farming until the 1970s, when many of them were dragged away from agriculture by the urbanisation of Hong Kong, and since then the farmland gradually became wetland. The wetland has been abandoned for years, but re-cultivation has been carried out in recent years to conserve the topography and biodiversity of Shui Hau. Although the group of young people do not have much experience in farming, driven by their passion for conservation, they reclaim the farmland manually from ground zero in hopes of creating a sustainable environment. The villagers are delighted with the changes, as most of them were born and raised here, feeling deeply connected with the Village. Some of them have moved to the city, but they still have fond memories on the village life, so they return and actively promote ecological and cultural activities for the Village, hoping to raise public awareness of the historical value of the Village.

This episode begins by examining Hong Kong’s natural soil structure and the challenges it poses for urban greening. We explore how government departments develop greening layouts and proper tree-planting methods suited to local conditions, covering species selection, soil improvement and ongoing maintenance. The programme also looks at future planting research, including studies to enhance tree resilience and strengthen sustainable greening strategies. In addition, we introduce the latest roadside planting guidelines aimed at improving safety and creating more pleasant streetscapes. Together, these efforts embody the principles of “planting with insight, adapting to the environment and putting people first,” supporting a more liveable, sustainable Hong Kong.

Now in her 90s, ink painter Hung Hsien is considered a pioneering figure in global modernism. Born on the Mainland, she studied traditional Chinese painting in Taiwan before moving to the US. In the mid-1960s, she developed a modern ink painting language, merging the technical mastery of Chinese tradition with the expressive energy of Western abstraction. She taught in Hong Kong in the 1980s before eventually settling in Texas in the US. Currently on show at Asia Society Hong Kong Centre is a retrospective exhibition, “Between Worlds”, showcasing Hung’s remarkable artistic journey. In the studio: Czech Pianist Jan Čmejla . Last year at just 21, Jan Čmejla became the first Czech pianist to win the Leipzig Bach Competition. Already a prize-winner of several international competitions, he has had the opportunity to perform with acclaimed orchestras including the Brno Philharmonic and the Prague Symphony Orchestra. This April, he came to Hong Kong again for the Piano Laureates in Concert Series of HKU Muse. [JS Bach: Partita No. 4 in D Major; György Ligeti: Études for Piano (Book 1), No. 5, Arc-en-ciel]

Oscar and Buu Cam's smiles intertwine to create beautiful laughter in the Disney. In this place, they find not just a job, but also a space for growth, gradually building their dream lives. Oscar (who has autism) wakes up early at around 4 a.m. to ensure he arrives at the park on time for work, spending more than two hours commuting. What he looks forward to most is finishing his cleaning duties well and then taking photos with his favorite cartoon characters at the end of the day as a reward. On days when he doesn't work at the park, he attends a social welfare organization to participate in vocational training courses, learning various skills needed for work. Buu Cam (who is hearing impaired), works as a tailor at the park, starting with button sewing and zipper work. She diligently notes down each step in her notebook. After more than two years of effort, she recently participated in making costumes for cartoon character performances, and seeing her work during the parade has been a tremendous motivation for her. The park not only collaborates with social welfare organizations to develop relevant vocational training programs but also hires individuals with physical and mental disabilities each year, arranging partners to assist them in entering the workforce. With the right vocational training, people with disabilities can find their dream jobs in the workplace.

In Lantau lives a “Bull Mama” who treats the buffalo as her own children. She has fed them daily for eighteen years—fruit in summer, hay in winter. Among the herd, the twenty six year old “Big Head” is the oldest bull king, rarely challenged. Yet youth is hard to resist: when young buffalo from Cheung Sha came to Pui O to contest his throne, “Big Head” won two rounds but was left exhausted, unwilling to fight again. He retreated to Mui Wo for respite, only to face capture by the Agriculture, Fisheries and Conservation Department. Bull Mama also worried that the authorities might sterilize him. Will “Big Head” be able to resist the helpless fate of an aging king?
