The initial client’s request was to add a retail space to salon area. The salon therefore carries a secondary function - it also serves as an exhibition space for young designer's garments hand picked by a famous Polish designer. A fitting room is concealed behind the curtain wall which visually separates the retail function from the hair dresser's zone. Inclined wall planes are bisected by horizontal cuts which open shelf space for the exhibited hair products along with the functional sink surface. Tall slender mirror columns serve to both clients and the stylists, offering abundance of storage and function inside. Spacial dynamism and multiple reflections offer multiple perspectives into the space resulting in a playful creative environment for hair masters. Plenty of waiting space is provided for along the window openings as well as at the entrance.
