Neri&Hu Project | Design Republic@Zhengzhou opens today within the CBD of ZhengzhouAugust 2019

Neri&Hu unveils Design Republic@Zhengzhou today, marking the first expansion from the two Shanghai locations -- Design Republic at the Bund (2006) and Design Republic Design Commune (2012).

Design Republic@Zhengzhou, a 800sqm showroom designed by Neri&Hu, opens today within the CBD of Zhengzhou, a historic and cultural city in the very center of China. Neri&Hu developed the design concept of this showroom to pay homage to the theme of "living".

The overall material expression of the space combines the privacy of "home" with a sense of community using "lanes and streets", tempting visitors to wander and explore within the two-story space. The central walkway and main space are paved with reclaimed gray bricks, punctuated by white rooms with sloping roofs, each separately inserted into the brick walls. Each vignette resembles the small shops usually seen along the streets at night time, showcasing a series of delicate and deliberately curated scenes of living.

Inside the showroom, a small space has been designed for lectures and workshops. Design Republic@Zhengzhou is not simply a showroom of furniture, but a sort of "living room" where people can gather, share and discover the beauty of design and everyday life. By creating a journey of space with curated scenes of furniture and accessories, Neri&Hu aspires to guide people to walk through, to discover, and to be surprised.

More design details of Design Republic@Zhengzhou will be released soon, please stay tuned.
