📌 Project Info

       

Push open the capsule door, and a sleek metallic glow leaks through the narrow seam. Outside lies a caramel-red alien terrain; inside, a hyper-realistic goat dressed in a pristine white spacesuit sits attentively at the control console.

This isn't a scene from a sci-fi blockbuster—it is the "Space Exploration" pop-up experience jointly created by Italian luxury cashmere house COLOMBO and DXDF (Grand Orient Wax Art) at Chengdu SKP.

Renowned as a global leader in noble fibers, COLOMBO has spent nearly a century sourcing the finest materials—from Vicuña to Kid Cashmere. Respect for nature remains the foundational core of the brand.

Spanning 150 m² at Chengdu SKP, DXDF translated COLOMBO's philosophy of "Human + Nature + Future" into a compelling spatial narrative:

• Hyper-Realistic Astronaut Goats: Goats represent both the origin of cashmere and messengers of nature. DXDF used museum-grade silicone techniques to capture every fine hair and expressive detail. Dressed in astronaut suits—the symbol of human exploration—they spark a philosophical dialogue about origins and the future.

• Space Capsule & Maillard Palette: An off-white landing capsule rests upon reddish Martian soil. Inside wall displays feature raw cashmere specimens ranging from cream to deep espresso, forming a sophisticated Maillard color palette.

For DXDF, luxury visual merchandising goes far beyond decorative props—it is about translating a brand's soul into spatial design.

By deeply understanding COLOMBO’s century-long legacy, DXDF provided an end-to-end custom service:

• Brand Strategy & Concept Design: Turning brand values into highly shareable, immersive spatial experiences.

• Gallery-Grade Sculpture Production: Combining advanced silicone molding with fine art sculpting to breathe life into the installation.

• Turnkey Execution: Managing everything from structural engineering and soft furnishings to flawless pop-up installation and dismantling.

Delivering flawless visual merchandising for top luxury brands demands uncompromised craftsmanship.

Tracing its lineage back to 1999, DXDF (Grand Orient Wax Art) brings over 25 years of hyper-realistic sculpture expertise, supported by an 11,000+ m² modern manufacturing facility. From precise anatomical clay modeling and high-durability silicone casting to complex spatial construction, DXDF’s integrated supply chain ensures that luxury aesthetics are rendered with perfection.
