NLGX 不拆 @ Beijing Design Week’s Hutopolis

Published on September 26, 2011 in From NLGX and Partnerships. Closed Tags: Beijing Design Week, buchai, Hutopolis, nlgx, preserve...create, 不拆.

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 Fahrvergnügen Tee!

Published on June 4, 2010 in Design apparel. Closed Tags: Beijing Sidecar, fahrvernügen, nlgx, T-shirt.

ChangJiang 750 sidecar motocycles, otherwise known as “kuazi” (跨子), have been popular with bike enthusiasts in Beijing the last two decades. A German-heritage design that has been integrated into Beijing’s subculture of “cool”, this graphic commemorates the CJ750 sidecar and the thrill of the open road. Fahrvergnügen!

长江750侧三轮摩托车（俗称”跨子”）在20世纪末是一些北京摩托车的狂热者所梦寐以求的。一个早期德国的设计已经演变成为北京一个很酷的文化代表。我们用这款设计来纪念 CJ750的侧三轮摩托车，还有在开放路段上飙驰的惊险刺激。Fahrvergnügen!

Available now at our NLGX Flagship Store at #33 Nanluoguxiang!
