Neri & Hu
Neri & Hu Design and Research office is a design studio founded in 2004 by Lyndon Neri and Rossana Hu based in Shanghai, China. The historical, cultural and urban contexts of the city are the starting point for their research and design. The studio includes planning ranging from architecture to interior design, installation, product, furniture, branding and graphic work. It is currently staffed by personnel from different countries around the world, which is essential to strengthen the new design concept, thus incorporating different disciplines and cultures. Neri & Hu bases its research by making a detailed analysis of the particularities of the design request, from place to function, fixing its philosophy on the dynamic interaction of experience, details, materials, forms and lights rather than conforming to a formal style. Their work has been recognized by a number of prestigious international awards.
