Started on September 23 until October 3rd, our friends at AQSO are presenting their Hutopolis Exhibition at Beijing’s historic Dashilan in Qianmen. NLGX is very proud to be sponsoring this very interesting project!
“Hutopolis at Beijing Design Week is a retrospective on the urban condition of Beijing and specifically its Hutongs.
Imagined as an exploration in three chapters on the urban fabric of the old Beijing, the exhibition wants to establish a relationship with the audience engaging a dialogue. The discourse starts from a general picture of the old city, continues with a scientific breakdown into the four principles and concludes at a virtual re-composition of an ideal image of the city.
…
By picturing, analyzing, and re-imagining a part of the city, Hutopolis wants to engage preservation and modernization into a dialogue to foster an evolution.”
NLGX Design is proud to support creative ideas and innovation in Beijing. In partnership with TEDxBeijing, we will together develop innovative ideas and concepts into an exclusive line of specially-designed merchandise. Proceeds will help to fund future TEDxBeijing events to further idea sharing and original creations in China’s Capital City.

Our Capital city has become a marquee destination, an attraction that is unique in its time and place in history.
A TEDxBeijing Boarding Pass, specially designed for participants at Uncovering Innovation as a ticket for the day’s journey from PEK Ideas Hub to TEDxBeijing, a destination for new ideas and collaborations.

NLGX is proud to be Tresor.Beijing’s official partner for apparel & merchandising.
NLGX represents the lifestyle and spirit of the “new” Beijing. Our aim is to create original-designed apparel inspired by Beijing’s development into a multicultural melting pot of artists, entrepreneurs, travellers, and global-minded individuals supporting the local design community. An approach Tresor.Beijing will look to support and uncover synergies at every available opportunity.
Tresor is one of the most influential brands in the world of electronic music, arguably an institution. It stands as a particular symbol for the re-unification of the youth in East and West Berlin and for the beginnings of a new musical generation inspired by techno and electronic dance music. Tresor became the mother ship of a new music movement that swept through the city, the country and finally throughout many parts of the world. A music movement that co-founded Berlin’s current status as one of the world’s liveliest cities, a unique place for creative industries.
Now, 20 years after the fall of the Berlin Wall and 20 years into his infancy the Tresor “Institution” is now building a new bridge between the East and the West. The crossing of Berlin’s former boarders is now finding its extension between the Beijing and Berlin.
