On the ground floor of a \’70s building in the heart of the city of Xanthi, a former 40 sq.m. clothing store, was converted by MNK DESIGN STUDIO into a hair salon. Functionality, comfort, warmth and also the diversity of this specific space, consist the main guides of the design process. The facade -which is the first contact with the hair salon-, was designed in such a way in order to maximize the natural light of the space but also to prevent the gazes of the passers-by.
The main features of the space are the two oval floating mirrors which dominate at the center of the hall, the perforated partitions beneath the washbasins area, the wooden product display shelving and of course the musical instruments that apparel the space with glamour. The double bass and the piano give the rhythm. The marble floor, the gold metal custom-made constructions, oak veneers and the baby pink ceiling with its plaster details give the style.
