Part 3 – Live Featured Events – includes the first edition of Xiamen Habitat Design & Life Festival to connect stone and design through cooperation between material suppliers and designers. The Third Stone Infinite Product Design Show will explore the infinite possibilities of stone with the theme of “Stones in Daily Life.” These concurrent featured events will be live streamed likewise.

Part 4 – the Cloud Xiamen Stone Fair – is the event’s year-round online platform operating as a complementary counterpart for the physical fair to energize the industry. Visitors can connect with ideal exhibitors by searching booth number, company name and products, and via online purchase system.
