The Eco Design Fair exists to advance the sustainable design movement in Shanghai and build community awareness and action around environmental issues as well as provide solutions for healthy sustainable lifestyle. The Eco Design Fair is the original bi-annual fair providing the community the opportunity to network, exchange ideas and be part of a growing eco-conscious movement in Shanghai.
