Reflection of the Future 2026

“REFLECTION OF THE FUTURE” is a landmark exhibition uniting the academic depth of Shenzhen University, the global prestige of the A’ Design Award, and the creative vitality of New York City’s local design community.

Set against the backdrop of Manhattan’s rapidly evolving West Side—at the crossroads of historic Hell’s Kitchen and the futuristic Hudson Yards—this exhibition positions Shenzhen as a living prototype for the future city, while inviting a critical cross-cultural dialogue on urbanization, technology, and ecology.
