Kokaistudios is proud to announce the opening of the
K11 Art Mall in June, 2013. Located in the heart of
Shanghai’s central shopping street, Huai Hai Lu, this
innovative commercial project has re-vitalized the podium
levels of the landmark New World Tower, an icon of the
1990’s commercial renaissance of Shanghai.
Kokaistudios oversaw both the architecture and the
interior design of 35,500 sq.m of commercial space in an
ambitious intervention that deeply transformed the
building and its relations with the surroundings. This K11
project, embodying its core brand values of “Art, People
and Nature” creates new scenarios to the city’s
commercial heart. Early this year, the project was
awarded “Core and Shell LEED Gold Certification for
Existing Buildings” and received the prestigious Asia
Pacific Property Awards 2013 in Commercial Renovation/
Redevelopment Category.
