From exterior to interior, the NIO House|Hefei Xinqiao Industrial Park fully showcases NIO’s brand vision and mission of "Blue Sky Coming". The metal materials in space use stainless steel instead of aluminum, greatly reducing the hidden carbon in the building. As the world's first "zero-carbon" one, this NIO House effectively utilizes a photovoltaic power generation system on its roof to offset carbon emissions from energy consumption, thus achieving carbon neutral operation. The whole building is built to "LEED Gold" health and sustainability standards. The open front hall brings in natural light, passive solar design and shading devices filter out most of the sun's radiated heat, while greenery is used extensively indoors to facilitate a healthy climate and a comfortable and pleasant environment.

The NIO House|Hefei Xinqiao Industrial Park is also the first NIO Life store which displays all the collections from NIO Life, the brand’s original design lifestyle brand. Limited designer collections are also available in a one-stop manner, including Blue Sky Lab, NIO Racing, EPedition, and NOMI.
