The first floor of the Hangzhou Star Avenue PhaseII shopping mall in Hangzhou, China boasts a fun-filled family park by X+Living that encourages imagination and bonding.
The Hangzhou Neobio Family Park offers a reading area, a space that's set up like a miniature town, a space for dining and entertainment, as well as other places for rest, interaction and learning. Within each of the spaces designed by X+Living, there are plenty of kid-friendly scenes to be discovered, offering plenty of opportunities for children of different ages to safely explore.
While the design of the family park is a standout for its many fixtures and aesthetics, it is also noted to be an experimental design that sets a precedent for shopping malls of the future.
