MEUNIER Technology Beauty Concept Flagship Store“Landscape in Fantasy”is situated in Futian CBD, Shenzhen, China. It was designed by DOMANI, a famous design firm in China.

The project design logic is proceeded from point to plane, starting from analyzing the specific behavior scale of user in a operating bed, the sensation of being in the room, and the supporting equipments around, then extended. This design method archives a balance between the functionality and the user-experience in the guest room under limited area conditions. Through the compact and consecutive layout of the rooms, circulation pattern grows accordingly to lead the customer’s wander direction and creates an experience of dramatic in the space.

Inside the rooms, pure white environment features an intelligent, adjustable light system that provides soft diffused light source, to create an immersive free experience, and also a professional light condition for skin examination. And the efficient room layout also frees up a sufficient space for building the public area experience, giving more space to design for concept communication.

As a design approach, Minimalism means a high sense of systematic management over materials and techniques from the very beginning of a design project. This sense of management is often roughly understood as a well-perform of construction in details, yet design, material and technics should not be considered separately. Material in space design is the texture of its tone, expressing design concept while deciding technique. There are four types of material refer to ‘nothingness’ with smooth finishing, black, white, mirror and transparency. Even though they represent various attitudes, they are telling the same story of ‘silence’. Also, the relevant construction techniques are the most difficult. With the absence of color and texture, structure and workmanship in the space becomes the only focus-point.

Ultimate design means more than extraordinary and imaginative concept. It also relies on a rational consideration of implementation, starting from funding and design concept, to systemic technical planning, construction resources matching and budget control. An outstanding work regardless of scale must be the outcome of a serious of procedures.

There is no need for garden in a natural landscape. The meaningful spot for a garden hides in the middle of a prosperous city, which provide a sense of drama. And that is the reason why the industry is obsessed with the concept of ‘urban forests’ in recent days. It is the only way to build a fantasy in the endless process of city development, even if it is a fragile one.

Imagine, as you drive through the traffic jam to a renowned building in the city center, ride in a gorgeous, intelligent elevator then slowly walk in to the sky. A white landscape greets you. As you wandering around the islands, an ambiguous scene of the stretching city gradually unfold. Or you can enjoy a piece of rest and peace in one of the fish-shape rooms before falling back to the ground of realist routine in the city. This is drama we create. The gardens we lack of and therefore we seek, is actually the drama in life, a chance to be descendent. However, the passion we have, fortunately, grows in the certain lack.
