After the 2015 film *Kingsman: The Secret Service* was released in Taiwan, its sharp pacing and captivating gentlemanly style won widespread acclaim, also deepening public imagination of "spies." In Hong Kong's Central district, a bar brimming with secret agent flair—"Foxglove"—opened its doors. Stepping inside, one might mistake it for a boutique umbrella shop, with exquisitely arranged umbrellas neatly displayed in brass cases, exuding an air of classic luxury.

"Foxglove" was designed by the creative team NC Design & Architecture, reminiscent of the bespoke suit shop scenes from *Kingsman*.NC Design & Architecture alsodeliberately styled the "Foxglove" entrance to resemble an umbrella shop. The meticulously crafted space, paired with century-old handmade umbrellas of exceptional quality, successfully cultivates a low-key yet luxurious mysterious ambiance, sparking anticipation among visitors. Every corner of the space and its hidden mechanisms extend the themes of mystery and refinement. After passing the brass display cabinets, entering the restaurant requires grasping a fox-headed umbrella handle by the counter—only then does the door unlock, adding a delightful touch.
