The Cube Gallery

Cube Gallery of Vanke Xiaoshan is a 21,000 sqm community retail centre located in Hangzhou. It is designed as a convivial place of interaction between the young families and seniors living in the surrounding residences. By fusing two types of common retail design, retail street and retail villa, CLOU provides a commercial design that hosts multi-scale, multi-type of business programs with various public social spaces.

The exterior façade of Cube Gallery adopts the structure of the glass curtain wall with a white aluminium grille. It provides shelters for different commercial programs’ logistics such as dining and entertainment, also guarantees indoor natural lighting. On the other hand, the entire visual from the exterior is integrated and varied, maximizing the public visibility of the street, and providing a buffer between the vertically dense residential area and the main street.
