The [Green Common](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vplanet) concept store is a 100% plant-based retail outlet located in Hong Kong. A tiny and brightly lit space, the Green Common is currently only 100-meters-squared and champions the idea of consuming food that is good for us, good for others and good for the earth.

The pristine Green Common concept store includes a helpful legend breaking down the symbols that denote product information such as whether or not it is egg-free, gluten-free, non-GMO, locally produced, organic and several more. The plant-based retail shop features minimal decor and fixtures and features a large illuminated logo suspended from the ceiling that is sure to pique the attention of passersby.

As the brand says on the shop's walls, "there is no planet b."
