Chuanlian
Chuanlian is a liquor retail and experience space located in Dalian, China. The design covers 3,000 square meters over three floors, arranged as a voyage. Visitors enter through an installation shaped like a treasure chest and move through zones for Chinese baijiu, red wine, mixed liquor and a bar. Display racks and partitions take their form from sails and masts, while the ceiling follows a wave shape. Materials were selected for reflective and tensile qualities. An adjustable lighting system and a mobile application guide movement, and open displays allow visitors to touch each bottle.
Chuanlian Liquor Retail Experience Space by EIK SPACE DESIGN was selected as a grand example of architectural design by the A' Design Award & Competition. Chuanlian Liquor Retail Experience Space received the Bronze A' Design Award in Interior Space and Exhibition Design in 2026. The A' Interior Space, Retail and Exhibition Design Award is an international, jury-voted, fair and ethical design competition which rewards outstanding design of residential interiors, restaurants, hotels, offices, galleries, retail stores, showrooms, exhibition spaces and more.
