Luce e design設(shè)計(jì)美學(xué)展 | 雙城記，映見(jiàn)文明之光

我將火種帶給人類，從此黑夜有了溫度，文明有了起點(diǎn)。

I brought fire to humanity-since then, the night has held warmth, and civilizaiton found its beginning.

—— 普羅米修斯 Prometheus

普羅米修斯從奧林匹斯山盜取火種，將它藏在一節(jié)空心的蘆葦中，穿越神與人的邊界，交予人類。那一刻，人類擁有了光的主權(quán)，擁有了掌控自然、組織空間的能力。

Prometheus stole fire from Mount Olympus, hid it inside a hollow reed, and crossed the boundary between gods and men to deliver it to humanity. In that moment, humankind claimed the sovereignty of light—the power to command nature and shape space.

千年流轉(zhuǎn)，那團(tuán)火，至今未曾熄滅，它以無(wú)形之姿，沿著文明脈絡(luò)不斷演變——火焰變?yōu)檎彰鳎彰魅谌朐O(shè)計(jì)，設(shè)計(jì)影響生活，它以“光”的名義，回到手中，成為城市與城市之間、人與人之間、意識(shí)與感知之間，一種全新的溝通方式。

Through the passage of millennia, that flame has never been extinguished. Invisible yet enduring, it has evolved along the veins of civilization—flame became illumination, illumination merged with design, and design began to shape daily life. In the name of “l(fā)ight,” it returns to our hands as a new language, connecting city to city, person to person, perception to consciousness.

2025年6月，Luce e design再度攜手廣州國(guó)際照明展覽會(huì)（GILE），特邀Jean-Jacques Lanzo 打造升級(jí)版“設(shè)計(jì)美學(xué)展Ⅱ”專區(qū)。繼去年以“東方遇見(jiàn)西方”主題引爆行業(yè)關(guān)注后，今年專區(qū)以“雙城記”為敘事核心，通過(guò)光影裝置、材質(zhì)交互與沉浸式體驗(yàn)，串聯(lián)起廣州與米蘭、傳統(tǒng)與未來(lái)、功能與美學(xué)的雙重對(duì)話。

In 2025, The GILE once again partners with Italy’s authoritative design magazine Luce e design to present the upgraded “Design Aesthetics Exhibition II” zone, curated by Jean-Jacques Lanzo. Following last year’s industry-highlighted theme, “East Meets West,” this year’s exhibition centers on the narrative of ““A Tale of Two Circles” weaving together Guangzhou and Milan through light installations, material interactions, and immersive experiences. It creates a dual dialogue bridging tradition and future, function and aesthetics.

廣州與米蘭，是兩種精神的對(duì)照與共鳴。一個(gè)制造精確光源，一個(gè)描繪光的情緒；一個(gè)擅長(zhǎng)建構(gòu)秩序，一個(gè)傾向于詩(shī)意表達(dá)。在此次的環(huán)形敘事中，兩座城市相遇，成為彼此的鏡像；全維度呈現(xiàn)傳統(tǒng)與未來(lái)、功能與美學(xué)、城市與文化的共振。

Guangzhou and Milan represent two distinct yet resonant spirits—one masters the precision of light as a source, the other captures its emotional resonance; one excels in constructing order, the other leans toward poetic expression. In this circular narrative, the two cities meet as mirror images of each other, presenting a multidimensional dialogue between tradition and future, function and aesthetics, city and culture.

“雙城記”并非傳統(tǒng)意義的展覽區(qū)，而是一個(gè)持續(xù)生成中的“精神劇場(chǎng)”。兩個(gè)圓形空間，彼此呼應(yīng)，形成開(kāi)放與包裹、沉浸與互動(dòng)的結(jié)構(gòu)層次。如同古老城邦的火堆與廣場(chǎng)，成為人們聚集交流、分享故事、碰撞靈感的場(chǎng)域。

“A Tale of Two Circles”is not a conventional exhibition zone, but a continuously evolving theatre of the spirit. Two circular spaces echo one another, forming a layered structure of openness and enclosure, immersion and interaction. Like the ancient bonfires and plazas of early city-states, they become spaces where people gather to converse, share stories, and spark inspiration.

首圓象征“設(shè)計(jì)的原點(diǎn)”，是光的發(fā)生地，隱喻文明起源，以及對(duì)“光”的控制力；光，在此點(diǎn)燃、流動(dòng)、生成，形成視覺(jué)與思維的反應(yīng)，延伸至第二層圓——與展館動(dòng)線交融，向公眾開(kāi)放的流動(dòng)空間，聯(lián)結(jié)內(nèi)容、文化與感官體驗(yàn)。一個(gè)內(nèi)聚而有序。一個(gè)敞開(kāi)而流動(dòng)，在它們的交疊處，包容著東西方融合下未定義的無(wú)限可能。

The first circle symbolizes the “origin of design”—the birthplace of light. It evokes the dawn of civilization and humanity’s newfound power to harness illumination. Here, light is ignited, flows, and generates responses in both vision and thought, extending into the second circle—an open, fluid space interwoven with the exhibition’s pathways. One is inward and ordered; the other open and dynamic. At their intersection lies a space of infinite, undefined potential—where East and West merge, and new possibilities are born.

光線從中央舞臺(tái)向四周呈放射狀，通過(guò)切割中心圓圈并將其與周圍環(huán)境連接，結(jié)合深灰色和亮黃色地毯鋪設(shè)的地面，將普羅米修斯帶來(lái)的“火焰”作為中心，向四周蔓延，生生不息。觀者不再是“觀看者”，而成為共享者、對(duì)話者、創(chuàng)造者與傳播者。正如Jean-Jacques Lanzo所希望“讓奇思妙想在此誕生，各種風(fēng)格迥異的元素都能在此碰撞出火花”。

Light radiates outward from the central stage, slicing through the core circle and extending into the surrounding environment. The floor—laid with deep gray and vibrant yellow carpets—echoes the Promethean flame at its center, spreading in all directions with a sense of continuous vitality. Here, viewers are no longer mere spectators; they become participants, collaborators, creators, and storytellers. As Jean-Jacques Lanzo envisioned, “Let imagination be born here, where diverse and contrasting elements spark inspiration through collision.”

Jean-Jacques Lanzo放棄了“光照物”的傳統(tǒng)模式，選擇用“遮蔽”去成就“表達(dá)”，用“留白”去激發(fā)“靈感”。他利用最古老的建筑元素——桶形拱頂，通過(guò)偏軸旋轉(zhuǎn)構(gòu)造出穹頂式圓弧結(jié)構(gòu)，制造陰影、動(dòng)靜、聚合與流動(dòng)的微妙張力。

Jean-Jacques Lanzo abandons the traditional notion of “l(fā)ight illuminating objects,” instead choosing to use obscuration to enable expression, and emptiness to evoke inspiration. Drawing upon one of the oldest architectural elements—the barrel vault—he constructs domed, arched structures through off-axis rotation, generating a delicate tension of shadow and light, stillness and motion, gathering and dispersion.

讓每一個(gè)拱頂皆為空間留下可呼吸的“暗角”，使觀者不只是“看見(jiàn)”，而是感受光在暗中流動(dòng)的方向。這不僅關(guān)乎功能，更關(guān)乎人與人之間如何看見(jiàn)彼此；關(guān)乎照亮共識(shí)，以持續(xù)的對(duì)話，讓光擁有文明的溫度。

Each vaulted arch leaves behind a breathable “shadowed corner” within the space, inviting the viewer not merely to see, but to feel the movement of light within darkness. This is not only about functionality—it is about how we perceive one another, how light fosters mutual understanding through sustained dialogue, endowing it with the warmth of civilization.

從廣州到米蘭，從神話起源到科技現(xiàn)實(shí)，這一場(chǎng)跨越時(shí)空的“雙城記”，是古老的火種穿過(guò)千年，落在此地此刻，照亮的不止設(shè)計(jì)、空間，更是我們對(duì)文明深處的信仰，是東方意蘊(yùn)與西方哲思交匯時(shí)，那聲悠長(zhǎng)的文化回響。

From Guangzhou to Milan, from myth to modernity, this cross-temporal "Tale of Two Cities" carries the ancient fire across millennia, arriving at this very moment—not merely to illuminate design and space, but to reignite our enduring faith in the essence of civilization. It is a resonant echo between East and West, where oriental subtlety meets Western thought, and where the light of culture flickers across time with quiet strength.

萬(wàn)家燈火漸起，抬頭看一眼霓虹

那依舊是普羅米修斯留下的“火”

在“光”中，我們重新去理解城市

故事，才剛剛開(kāi)始

As lights rise across the city

a glance at the neon recalls
Prometheus’s fire still aglow
In light, we see our cities anew

And the story is just beginning
