The MIXc City, Kunshan, in the centre of west living quarter of the city, is located at the intersection point of two urban express motorways, with site plan area 54560.66 sqm, and architectural plan area 236800 sqm.

昆山万象城位于昆山市西部生活区中心地带，地处两条城市快速路的交汇处，规划用地面积54560.66平方米，建筑面积236800平方米。

The Kunshan MiXC retail center challenges the mold of the giant air-conditioned retail box by offering a true lifestyle center complete with a series of relaxing gardens to encourage visitors to linger and enjoy their shopping experience. The retail center creates ambiance by welcoming abundant light from overhead and incorporating lush gardens and small nooks to encourage people to wander or simply sit and contemplate during busy shopping trips.

昆山万象城零售中心打破了以往大型空调零售盒子的模式，打造了一个真正的生活方式中心，并配有一系列令人放松的花园，鼓励顾客流连忘返，享受购物体验。零售中心通过引入充足的采光，并融入郁郁葱葱的花园和小角落，营造出一种独特的氛围，鼓励人们在繁忙的购物过程中漫步或静坐沉思。

The design concept represents a departure from the current retail center model, allowing shoppers to constantly weave in and out of natural environments and discover secret places to sit outdoors and take a break — even in the middle of the mall.

该设计理念打破了现有的零售中心模式，让购物者能够不断地穿梭于自然环境之间，即使在商场中心也能发现户外小憩的秘密空间。
