B+Tube collection of beauty products ranges from skincare, make-up, travel and lifestyle products, all focused around the idea of freedom of expression.

The design pays tribute to an old Chines proverb of the mouse that fell into a rice jar. It is the analogy of being fully immersed in all the choices the brand wants to offer teenagers to express themselves. Translating that freedom of expression into design, Storeage chose iridescent perforated steel as the eye-catching material throughout the space. Applying the iridescent to a cathedral like structure in the centre of the space the agency organized the lay-out around 3 basic principles of cosmetics: cleansing, foundation and make-up. Each direction comes with an education center, with tutorials and videos, illustrating how to best apply the different products and in return allowing consumers to shop complementing ones from these videos for alternative expressions or better suited products for their skin.

而双层圆点冲孔不锈钢板里均匀分布的双层孔状结构为整体建筑造型实现了半透明的视觉效果，当消费者穿梭其中，光线穿透双层孔状结构的光影，营造如在水底般斑斓流动的沉溺感。

“我们希望鼓励年轻消费者表达自己关于美的想法，自己的喜欢颜色、形状、质感，但同时注意不要以付出健康的肌肤为代价。”Lisa Yu，B+Tube油罐的创始人兼CEO说到。基于这样的品牌理念，整个店面设计的大基调也体现出干净、安全的空间光感和质感。在半封闭的护肤区，大面积地运用了拉丝银色不锈钢和白色亚克力，平衡展示层次的同时营造如实验室般的高科技氛围。同时B+Tube在产品选择上，除了利用AI技术抓取国际上最新流行趋势，同时也极度关注美妆及护肤产品的科学研发及对于肌肤的临床安全测试。
As Lisa Yu, the founder and CEO of B+Tube puts it: “We want to encourage a younger Chinese generation to expression themselves in whatever shape or color they prefer, yet never at the expense of a healthy skin.” Following this thinking the perimeter of the store is rather clean and laboratory like, using brushed metal and white corian. It emphasises the fact B+Tube will not carry any cosmetic or skincare brand without doing it’s proper research on the effect of those products on your skin.
