The project aims to transform salons, an integral part of everyday life, into community hubs where people can socialize while enjoying their time in the space.

Salon Render

Render of the salon view, featuring a captivating brick texture that adds a dynamic flow to the space, while creating a cozy atmosphere that encourages interactions and fosters a sense of community.

Diagrams

Diagrams illustrate both my design concept and process. The design concept pattern is visible on the ground floor plan, demonstrating how the 'blurring' concept is applied in my project. Additionally, the process diagrams provide a detailed exploration of the 'blurring,' 'interaction,' and 'flow' aspects of my concept.

Workstation

To ensure that the entire salon program aligns with my design concept, I've created a set of mobile and flexible workstations. These designs not only cater to the dimensions of hairdressers and clients but also encourage people to move around and interact with one another, or, in some cases, provide the option to maintain personal space, enabling them to freely explore and engage in various activities.
