When Co – Working applies to Hair Salon. Working with OLSK team , we set about designing a space that could bring together not one but four salon owners into one shared space to operate. All four contribute financially and bring their own clients along for the journey. From a design perspective, a key challenge was how to cohesively reflect the four individuals and let them each have input without resulting in a project that was disjointed. Spatially the project has been split up into a mix of key zones. The entrance and front of the space are where the barber and standard salon services are positioned, with both offerings being given an equal level of importance. At the rear are the washing and colouring stations, this was deliberate to relax customers when they’re “at their most vulnerable”, and the space is even more relaxing with a palette of natural timbers, no mirrors and a special green wall. In the middle of the space is what has been coined as the Hub. Outside of the original brief, the Hub is all about creating an experience.
