"Design Shanghai" returned to the city from June 8 to 11 at the Shanghai World Expo Exhibition & Convention Center. This year marks the 10th anniversary of the design event, which aims to present pioneering design philosophies and better-life concepts at home and abroad. It not only showcases the world's most high-end design brands and galleries but also provides a unique interaction and trade platform for Asia's most influential architects, designers, real estate developers, retailers, and private buyers. "Nature as Culture," an exhibition produced by the Consulate General of Norway in Shanghai, showcases the architectural practices of four Norwegian architecture firms and how they interact with nature and culture. Their practices and projects explore different ways to understand, promote, and live with nature to find more sustainable solutions for the environment and society. Photos: Chen Xia/GT
