District Eight to launch first pop up showroom with new designer collections
Located at 33 Dong Khoi, one of the city’s most iconic and historical streets in District 1 where tradition and modern intertwine, the 2-facade, 3-story showroom caters a space to celebrate the quintessence of Vietnamese craftsmanship in furniture making with a confident take on local cultures, contemporary living and an understanding of modern elegance.
From humble beginnings with a small collection informed by Vietnamese architecture in the 20th century, this flagship store now bookmarks a new chapter for District Eight with an exclusive showcase of new collections designed by award-winning designers such as Michele De Lucchi, Toan Nguyen and Adam Goodrum through on-site vignettes and displays.
“I have always loved the energy of this city. 12 years ago, the brand started in District 8 where we, a team of 4, sketched our very first design. This space in downtown Saigon really reminds me of our first factory and I wanted to bring its nostalgic elements to this location. It feels like a rebirth and also a new benchmark for District Eight.”
— Darren Chew, Director at District Eight
Being the brand’s first retail concept in Vietnam, the showroom is conceived to convey subtle elements of lifestyle which are elevated to a multidimensional level through District Eight’s defining design identity in spatial design, material selection, and tonal color schemes.
The space also includes a cafe on its first floor where visitors can enjoy barista-made beverages while indulging themselves in the contemporary setting harmonized with inspiring curated artworks.
