在医疗美学品牌
LANLANLI
的创始基因中,空间观念与当代艺术即作为其重要组成,因为它们同样是不断讨论技术、审美和身体的过程。
In the founding DNA of the medical aesthetics brand LANLANLI, the concept of space and contemporary art serve as essential components, as they both involve an ongoing exploration of technology, aesthetics, and the body.

曾为

设计了其厦门机构的

,这是一个融合了新媒体艺术装置的现代空间。
以此为契机,在之后几年中,
DEVOLUTION
退化建筑
深度介入了这个年轻但观念开放的医美品牌的基因塑造。
首先,在
LANLANLI
“
新亚洲面孔
”
概念的基础上,我们提出了「
SITUASIAN
」一词,这是一个由
Situation
与
Asian
结合的生造词。当一切复杂事物都在简化为可被消费的形式时,我们希望
LANLANLI
的
“
新亚洲面孔
”
不是对
“
亚洲
”
或
“
新
”
的简单定义,不是把面孔简化为他者化的符号(如同如同东方之于西方、女性之于男性那样),而是窥探面孔内在的复杂与多样,捕捉这种流动性的一个多元视角。
In 2022, DEVOLUTION designed the 2F space of LANLANLI in Xiamen, creating a modern space that integrates new media art installations. Taking this as a starting point, DEVOLUTION became deeply engaged in shaping the identity of this young yet conceptually open medical aesthetics brand in the following years.
First, building upon LANLANLI’s concept of the “New Asian Face,” we coined the term “SITUASIAN” by combining “Situation” and “Asian.” In a time when complex matters are increasingly simplified into consumable forms, we hope LANLANLI’s “New Asian Face” to transcend simplistic definitions of “Asian” or “New.” It should not reduce faces to exoticized symbols (as the East is to the West, or women are to men), but rather delve into the intrinsic complexity and diversity of faces, capturing its fluidity from a multifaceted perspective.
以此为线索,我们策划了
2022
年的「新▇▇面孔」展览。
Following this thread, we curated the "SITUASIAN" exhibition in 2022.
更在
LANLANLI
空间中,推出了一个以一面
LED
屏幕为媒介的艺术计划「
Onepiece gallary
片面艺术」(点击下方图片查看),它面向全球关注着身体、性别、流行性、大众审视、身份意识等议题的艺术家,考验医美空间里美的
“
平滑
”
意图和它身后的深刻成因之间是否或如何产生对话。
Furthermore, within the LANLANLI space, we launched an art initiative called "Onepiece Gallery 片面艺术," using an LED screen as its primary medium. This project invites artists from around the world who engage with themes such as the body, gender, popularity, public scrutiny, and identity. It challenges the "smooth" aesthetic intentions of medical aesthetics spaces and explores whether—and how—a dialogue can emerge between this pursuit of beauty and its deeper underlying causes.
在这些项目中,
DEVOLUTION
退化建筑
扮演着多重角色,除了空间与软装设计,更在观念、策展、视觉(或顾问)等领域工作。这种服务方式也延续到了此次泉州五店市的
LANLANLI
新空间中。
In these projects, DEVOLUTION plays multiple roles—not only in spatial and interior design but also in conceptual development, curation, and visual identity (or consulting). This approach has also been carried forward to LANLANLI’s new space in Wudianshi, Quanzhou.
此次设计基于两栋不同时期的闽南建筑(传统古厝与
1980
年代红砖楼)进行改造,在保留和整理传统建筑语言的基础上,
DEVOLUTION
退化建筑
通过克制的元素处理和介入
——
混凝土体块和温润的野生柚木及泉州白石的拼贴;南洋桌椅和
1970-80
年代的现代主义家具与灯饰的交互等,让这个空间既传统质朴又不乏摩登,闪现一些碰撞的趣味。
The current design is a renovation based on two Minnan-style buildings from different periods—a traditional courtyard house (古厝) and a 1980s red-brick building. While preserving and refining the traditional architectural language, DEVOLUTION introduces a restrained yet thoughtful intervention through carefully selected elements. These include concrete blocks, warm wild teak, and Quanzhou white stone, as well as a fusion of Nanyang-style tables and chairs with modernist furniture and lighting from the 1970s-80s. The result is a space that is both traditionally rustic and undeniably modern, with flashes of intriguing juxtapositions.
