The project unfolds within an approximately 50m2 space, seamlessly blending tradition and innovation. The robust stone walls symbolize the enduring nature of the existing structure, while the reuse of the mirror system pays homage to the old salon, bridging the gap to the present.
Structured around a central aluminum table with eight seats, the space fosters community and serves as a canvas for beauty and care. A mirror partition not only creates an optical expansion but also signifies self-reflection and inner beauty. In the rear section dominated by aluminum, a multifunctional built-in cabinet serves as storage and a color studio for creative transformations. The deliberate choice of aluminum for specific areas emphasizes both the functional differentiation of spaces and meticulous attention to detail.
Columns and beams disappear as they are clad with mirrors, creating a continuous illusion of the stone walls, symbolizing the fusion of tradition and modernity. The existing window is replaced by an elegant aluminum shelf that showcases ARU's products.
This harmonious blend of old and new captures the essence of the project, creating a space where the enduring elements of tradition seamlessly coexist with the innovative spirit of the present.
