The Ring, located in Chongqing's Jinzhou Business District, is a first-of-its-kind retail destination. The design, inspired by the desire to create a new-generation social destination, an urban natural community, and a landmark regional commercial center, is truly innovative. The Ring is not just a shopping center; it's an experiential destination that pushes the boundaries of retail design.
What sets The Ring apart from other retail spaces is its unique blend of retail and nature. The interior design features a 42-meter-tall botanical garden, interactive sports and culture, and a creative tenant mix. The power of biophilia and nature is front and center, pushing the agenda forward for retail design. The Ring is a testament to the transformative power of biophilic design, which seeks to connect people and nature within built environments.
The Ring's strategic location next to the picturesque Zhaomushan Forest Park and its direct connections to Chongqing Metro Lines 5 and 15 make it easily accessible across the city. This transit-oriented approach is another unique feature of The Ring, making it a convenient destination for city dwellers and visitors alike.
The Ring was completed and opened to the public in 2021. Since its opening, it has been recognized for its innovative design and contribution to societal wellbeing. It was awarded the Platinum A' Interior Space, Retail and Exhibition Design Award in 2022. This prestigious award recognizes world-class, exceptional, and highly innovative designs that showcase unmatched professionalism, genius, and contribute to societal wellbeing.
