Meland Club: A Futuristic Indoor Playground

Li Xiang's Meland Club is a 10000㎡ indoor playground completed in September 2023 in Beijing, China. The design, winner of the Platinum A' Design Award in 2024, is a wondrous museum of nature, integrating architectural logic, art installations, mechanical technological aesthetics, philosophy, and popular science education to create a comprehensive indoor parent-child theme park encompassing family amusement, art appreciation, aesthetic education, popular science, and creative enlightenment.

The inspirational narrative of designer Li Xiang is about protecting endangered wildlife, utilizing abstract mechanical styles to recreate supernatural landscapes and vibrant colors and animal imagery to conjure a revival of all living things, an animated and dynamic amusement journey. On the foundation of architectural logical aesthetics, Li Xiang innovatively integrated mechanical aesthetics into interior construction and artistic decoration, attempting to deconstruct the rigid structures of mechanical motion and recreate dynamic rhythmic beauty through condensed static beauty.

The design team also incorporated imagery of 60 extinct animals into the spatial scenes, enriching thematic details so that the entertainment activities also have humanistic educational significance. Meland Club combines five major themes of Insects, Oceans, Land, Sky, and Jungle, to create a fantasy universe transcending yet tangible to reality.
