Located on the banks of the Huangpu River, the Molteni&C Shanghai Flagship Store is the largest of the brand's Flagship Stores in the world. Part of the "Golden Union Shi bo" compound on what was once an industrial heritage site comprising old factories, the grounds have transformed into a modern urban landscape, reflected in the store's raw, Brutalist-inspired architectural style. Molteni&C's Creative Director Vincent Van Duysen effortlessly plays with the building's structure, balancing functionality with the brand's renowned elegance.

Pre-existing reinforced concrete industrial columns juxtapose modern metal accents and cultural Chinese details, creating a complementary dialogue between contemporary design and the site's industrial heritage.
