Motto Carpe Diem: Eighteen Years at the Fingertips — A Dialogue with Time through Leather Craft

"Leather has a life of its own; it records the stories of its user. Our mission is to build the most solid foundation for these stories."

— Ivan Yung, Founder

| 18 Years of Craft Mastery

The story of Motto Carpe Diem began 18 years ago with founder Ivan Yung’s pursuit of traditional craftsmanship. At a time when handmade leather was rare in Hong Kong, he sought out master artisans to preserve forgotten techniques. Believing that "structure is soul," Ivan infuses precision into every pattern and stitch, ensuring each piece withstands the test of time.

| From a Dream Studio to a City Landmark

Founded in 2011, Motto Carpe Diem embodies the spirit of "Seizing the Day". We believe in creating mindfully in the present, allowing leather to record the beautiful marks of time.

Over 15 years, we have grown from a small studio into a professional brand with two iconic locations:
