A friend told me about one of the must-see speciality stores in Hong Kong, Goods of Desire (or G.O.D.). There are 5 stores throughout the city but the one in Harbor City is the largest and best one. G.O.D. store can only be found in Hong Kong and are usually missed unless you're out actively looking for it.
The shops are a blend of modern style with funky Chinese culture. They have everything from modern furniture to flip flops. Much of the lighting and home accessories are packed flat for travel and easily fit into any suitcase.
