Hopson One

Xian, China

The Xi'an Hopson One retail project is situated in the vibrant "Dananmen Commercial District," often referred to as the "City's Reception Lounge." It marks the debut of Hopson Commercial Group in the Xi'an market. This expansive commercial renovation project encompasses approximately 100,000 square meters of comprehensive commercial space, spanning one underground floor and five above-ground levels.

Designed with a youthful clientele in mind, the project revolves around various thematic zones, including "beauty, shopping, trend, food, and entertainment." Despite working within a constrained budget, the renovation endeavors to establish a unique blend of "distinctive cultural themes," "international trendy brand positioning," "youthful lifestyle," and "physical and online shared experiences." The ultimate objective is to forge a new nexus for the highly anticipated "Z" generation, serving as a prominent catalyst for national trends.

The existing commercial space comprises two sections constructed during different time periods, interconnected by a north-south pedestrian bridge and an atrium featuring operable skylights. The design aims to optimize the original circulation routes, seamlessly linking the eastern and western segments of the retail area. Moreover, it harmoniously integrates elements of traditional Xi'an culture with modern materials, as well as cutting-edge audio, lighting, and electronic technologies, resulting in a captivating shopping and experiential destination tailor-made for the new era's young generation.
