LLLab. is a design studio based in Shanghai, Stuttgart and Porto operating within the fields of architecture, design, art, urbanism, research and development. The studio is led by four partners Hanxiao Liu, Luís Ricardo, David Correa and Taichi Kuma.

Their work focuses on using design as a tool to improve social and cultural life through various scales, from urban projects to micro-architecture or installations. The principals are driven by an experimental and playful approach that leads to conceptually rigorous and well-executed design projects. Creating distinctive solutions adapted to a context and its users, LLLab. produces site-specific design installations and building projects that both provoke and inspire. LLLab. founders Hanxiao Liu, Luís Ricardo and David Correa started their own practice after meeting at the German office haascookzemmrich STUDIO 2050 and the Institute of Computational Design, where they collaborated on various international projects in both practical and academic fields.

Key projects include the San Sa Village, San She Nostalgic Space, Farmers House Collective in Beijing, LEO Digital Network in Shanghai, Bamboo Bamboo Lanterns and Canopy in Yangshuo, Oravida Experience Centre and Revitalization of A Stone Village in Shanxi, China.

In addition to their series of award-winning design projects, Liu, Ricardo, Correa and Kuma have also worked at SOM in New York, RCR Arquitectes in Barcelona, Kobayashi + Zedda Architects in Whitehorse, Canada, and Kuma & Associates Europe in Paris, France, respectively.

LLLab. projects have been widely published in international press including Architectural Record, Architectural Digest, Dezeen, Archdaily, Domus, FRAME, designboom, Baunetz wissen etc., while their design research work has been featured at multiple international venues including the Keller Gallery at MIT Massachusetts Institute of Technology and the BOZAR Center for Fine Arts in Brussels among others.
