Dual purpose salon Sugared&Co. + IN Hair boutique

The renovation of a 75 m² space in the heart of Rijeka, Croatia, achieves a harmonious blend of functionality and aesthetic appeal. Designed to serve a dual-purpose as both a hair styling salon and a specialized depilation treatment salon, the slightly irregular layout of the old building has been thoughtfully reimagined to support both businesses.

With meticulous attention to detail and a restricted budget, designer Iva Hirtz created an inviting oasis that embodies modern design infused with the calming principles of Japandi style. Simple forms, natural and sustainable materials, and warm tones define the space’s aesthetic.

Major elements were custom-designed by Hirtz and brought to life by local contractors, resulting in a functional yet tranquil environment. The final design not only meets the practical demands of the dual-purpose space but also radiates an ambiance of comfort and serenity.
