M+ and KMB Launch Design Ah! Open-Top Bus Liveries in Kowloon
From now until November 2026, three open-top buses featuring Design Ah! artwork will be cruising around Kowloon, thanks to a new partnership between M+ and The Kowloon Motor Bus Company (1933) Limited, also known as KMB. This initiative brings the Special Exhibition, Design Ah! Experience the Wonder of Everyday Design, right into the streets of Hong Kong. These buses, called 'KMB Tour HK' 'CITY CHARM' HK1 Open-top Buses, showcase designs that celebrate daily life. Plus, riders can use a unique audio guide influenced by the exhibition, providing a design-centric exploration of Hong Kong's neighborhoods. M+, which is located in the West Kowloon Cultural District, is recognized as Asia's leading museum for contemporary visual culture.
