Soft Set-ups: Our top picks for adult pink furniture and home accessories

The colour pink may have once been a hue associated with childhood, with its strong ties to adolescent girls and their Barbies, or even to a grandmother’s sweet jar, but, thanks to millennials, the pale red has been the go-to colour of decor for more than just a season or two. And, while it may seem tricky at first to find ways to make magenta into a colour of maturity and sophistication, it is indeed possible to add a touch of ultra-feminine glamour to your home without going overboard. Below are our Editorial team’s top picks for luxury pink furniture and home accessories, from Gucci wallpaper to Tom Dixon sofas.

Awesome Alto: Rooftop restaurant serves up delicious dishes and divine design

There are many rooftop restaurants in Hong Kong. So what sets apart Alto, a contemporary grill house situated on the top floor of V Point Tower in Causeway Bay? To begin with, it’s the stunning interiors designed under the expert guidance of Tom Dixon, an award-winning British designer whose works have been celebrated the world over.

Taking inspiration from Alto’s restaurant grill and sweeping views of mountains, sea and the sky, Tom Dixon blends four classic elements of earth, air, fire and water to create an unique decor. While a monochrome backdrop frames the panoramic view of Victoria Harbour, a canopy of 230 signature gold Mini Melt lights add to the festive feel. The blackened timber table tops, molten metal brass fittings, green marble and terrazzo stone add to the glamour as well. It’s easy to say that this is a place that would see those Instagram likes shoot up!

Moving on to the food, guests are spoilt for choice with a plethora of sumptuous options, from superior USDA Prime and Argentinian grass-fed beef to French-Asian inspired mains including sous-vide chicken breast and sous-vide salmon, an eclectic spread of starters, side dishes and salads, such as yellowfin tuna tartare, grilled halloumi with pickled cauliflower and tomato with smoked almond romesco.

Of course, as dessert lovers can testify, no meal is complete without a decadent desserts, and Alto is equally well stocked in that department, featuring an array of drool-worthy dishes like banana cakes, mixed berry trifle, dark chocolate caramel tart.

With such Instagrammable interiors, delectable dishes and artisanal cocktails, it’s no wonder that Alto is soon becoming such a popular destination for Hongkongers.

Tom Dixon’s marble lights brighten up your home in style

Tom Dixon lights

Tired of looking at the same old lights in your house? Then, Tom Dixon’s new series of Stone lights may be the solution to your problem.

Inspired by the beauty of marble, each light is carved out of solid blocks of white marble to add a touch of grandeur to your home.

Some of the lights have an almost angelic look with a halo hallowed out of white marble and a brass bulb in the centre.

Tom Dixon, a British product design brand, strives for individuality with its lights as each piece has a unique pattern, such as grey and blues speckles or grey veins.

And to get the most out of the lighting, the marble is cut as fine as possible and is semi-translucent.

The lights start at HK$2,200 for a Stone Table Light.
