01 — The challengeA landmark with many stories.
The Mills is an arts and culture landmark in Tsuen Wan, rooted in Hong Kong's textile and industrial past. Its three pillars — The Mills Shopfloor, CHAT (Centre for Heritage, Arts and Textile) and The Mills Fabrica — share one site.
The website has to work for very different visitors — shoppers and diners, exhibition-goers, tour groups and tourists — while keeping up with a constantly changing programme of events and seasonal campaigns.
02 — What we builtEverything under one roof, online.
- Trilingual website (Traditional Chinese, English and Simplified Chinese) on WordPress.
- Happenings section for events, exhibitions and guided tours, with calendar filtering and search.
- A single enquiry form that routes each enquiry to multiple recipients.
- A signature look that combines background imagery with custom line-art overlays, carried through to visual elements and interactive UI controls.
- Shop and dining directory with floor guide, plus venue rental information.
- Visitor information covering opening hours, shuttle bus, parking and pet-friendly facilities.
- Design, development and ongoing maintenance, all by VICOSYS.
