Design Shanghai, Asia’s largest design fair, this year presents a new addition to its roster: Design Shenzhen. Harnessing the city’s incredible energy, Design Shenzhen is hosting over 200 curated brands tailored to architects, interior designers, property developers and the design-savvy public.

Home to the biggest architecture and design, cultural and creative communities in China, Shenzhen is a hub of cutting edge and future-focused innovation.

Our highlights for the week:

Resonance”, spotlighting Sony’s cutting-edge technology to present their thinking and practice in sustainable development. The exhibition uses a series of sensory effects such as sight, hearing and touch to lead the audience to experience the origin, evolution and cycle of natural life as if they were there.
