Playground for a shopping mall in China. Combination of Colours and Compositions

The Chinese Studo XL, Li Xiang, designs the Neobio Family Park on the first floor of a shopping mall, dividing the space into various thematic zones integrated with each other where the interplay is the keyword for everything designed

The aesthetic concept of the project stemmed from the abstraction of the scenario. Since the family park is located on the riverside, the designers drew inspiration from natural views in the composition of the design

Based on the original layout of the shopping mall, it was divided into four main functional areas, each of which took into account different age groups, interests and behaviours of children, while combining features for entertainment, education and rest during parent-child activities

A complete area for rest, catering and entertainment is located in the atrium of the shopping mall in order to allow shoppers to access the ground floor to have a clear view of this area, the designers have designed the space with the upper part reaching the third floor, also enabling shoppers in the park of the Neobio family and the upper floor to have a visual contact

The park represents a small miniature town, where the little ones entertain themselves by playing with the grown-ups. The designers used mushroom-shaped structures, soft shapes and pastel colours to make this experience almost dreamlike
