TSPACE Design | Lingering Light in the Empty Valley: Reconstructing the New Consumer Context through Curatorial Commercial Design
In an era where commercial exhibition spaces are increasingly homogenized, TSPACE Design redefines brand narrative logic through innovative curatorial thinking, breaking through the physical limitations of traditional displays and injecting differentiated experiential value into commercial spaces. By combining environmental storytelling with emotional resonance in its design strategy, the brand essence is transformed into a perceptible spatial language. For this design at the Shanghai exhibition, the designers used a showroom created for the cactus lighting brand as a practical platform.
