Surrounded by residential buildings from the 1990s, Conemoting Market stands out with its futuristic interior and captivating design. The project involved the renovation of an existing building, transforming it into a multi-functional space that caters to the evolving needs of modern consumers.
The interior of Conemoting Market is a visual feast, with transparent red and orange tempered glasses dividing the dining area and creating a psychedelic visual effect. The space feels like a 4D maze, immersing visitors in a captivating and otherworldly atmosphere. The warm colors of the glasses are juxtaposed against the cold silver facade, adding a touch of contrast and making the establishment truly stand out in the old community.
One of the key features of Conemoting Market is the integration of technology and design. On the underground floor, white metal paint serves as a backdrop for the displayed products, creating a clean and minimalist aesthetic. The retail space features innovative design elements, such as decorative shelves, a warehouse adorned with bulbs, and a towering metal giraffe sculpture that penetrates from the warehouse to the ground floor. The entire retail space is enveloped in metallic silver, exuding an upscale industrial art atmosphere. Every detail, from the custom-made finishes to the unique furniture pieces, showcases the meticulous craftsmanship and attention to detail.
Conemoting Market is not just a place to shop; it is a social hub where people can gather, relax, and connect. The ground floor features red and orange toughened glasses, which provide different visual experiences indoors and outdoors, akin to looking through tinted spectacles. These glasses create an illusionary space, transforming the bar area into a mesmerizing spectacle when the lights are turned on in the evening.
Completed and opened in August 2019, Conemoting Market has quickly become a symbol of the evolving commercial landscape in Chinese cities. It represents the shift from traditional retail spaces to online physical spaces that offer a holistic lifestyle experience. By seamlessly integrating shopping, dining, and socializing, Conemoting Market has set a new standard for the renovation of old communities and has attracted a new generation of customers to the select shop.
This groundbreaking design has been recognized with the prestigious Bronze A' Design Award in the Interior Space, Retail, and Exhibition Design category in 2021. This accolade celebrates the innovative and ingenious nature of Conemoting Market, which incorporates best practices in art, science, design, and technology. By contributing to the improvement of quality of life, Conemoting Market exemplifies the transformative power of design.
