Refined wood louver details

Hair salons: interior design, construction and cost estimates

Hello! I'm Goodterior designer Ham Young-ju. :)

Today's project is a 46-pyeong hair salon interior in Sinsa-dong. The director wanted a comfortable, private space where professional style would stand out and clients could fully relax.

White and black create a modern atmosphere, with warm wood louvers carefully balancing areas that might otherwise feel cold for a cozy, refined setting.

We used lighting and partitions effectively in each area so clients could feel specially cared for throughout their visit.

Shall we step inside this appealing salon where sleek design meets comfort?

Notes

This project began with a request for a professional salon where clients could feel comfortable.

Warm wood louvers and indirect lighting create a cozy, refined first impression in the entrance and waiting areas.

The styling area emphasizes a sleek atmosphere with a black exposed ceiling and track lighting, while lower lighting makes the shampoo room the most private place to relax.

Carefully differentiated designs reflect each area's function, helping every visitor enjoy a special experience.
