The bright, airy Mid-Levels apartment, which features a private rooftop, is a haven for the family of the Plaza Premium Group brand and product transformation director—one filled with memories from their travels
“We travel a lot for work—naturally, our home has lots of mementos from our travels,” says Mei Mei Song.
The brand and product transformation director at airport hospitality services company Plaza Premium Group—and formerly an editor at Tatler—recently moved into a new home in Mid-Levels with her husband Mitchel Squires, an architect who is also partner and design director at design firm AVT Studio, along with their young family.

Given Covid-19 travel restrictions, the 1,400 sq ft, three-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment—which also has a private rooftop of the same size, and a 50 sq ft balcony off the living room—has become a “little travel diary” for the family, she says. Before the Covid era, business travel was a regular feature for Song, who is Chinese and Malaysian, and Squires, an Australian native.
A six-month revamp of the property, spearheaded by Squires, means the space is transformed into one filled with treasured pieces bought during their time overseas. “In a time where you’re not able to travel, your home becomes a classroom, an office; you’re hosting and dining at home a lot more. With these new purposes, we’ve created that space and embraced it,” she adds.
