How would you describe the design of your salon?
It’s a warm, minimalist space with lots of natural texture and neutral tones. We’ve worked hard to make it feel homely despite its size (it’s over 1,000 square feet!), and I think we’ve struck a good balance between stylish and relaxing. It’s got that ‘private members club’ feel, rather than a typical salon vibe. We’ve stripped away anything that felt too ‘salon cliché’ and focused on the detail and a nice, considered design.
Do you have any curated pieces or special features in the salon?
There’s definitely an attention to detail throughout. The Bauwerk limewash paint on the walls adds a beautiful natural texture, and we’ve used soft, floating curtains to divide the space so that each area feels personal and peaceful. The furnishings were carefully chosen with input from clients of mine – Suzanne Peterson helped with the soft furnishings and Sophie Corbett gave styling input. We’ve also got a few pieces from Rockett St George that add that little something extra.
How have you embraced sustainability within your design?
Sustainability was part of the thinking, but not the headline. We made considered choices like using Bauwerk’s non-toxic, breathable paint and a poured resin floor that wears well and doesn’t need replacing often. We didn’t go over the top shouting about eco credentials, but we’ve taken thoughtful steps to reduce waste and chosen materials that last.
Do you have a dress code for your team?
It’s relaxed, but consistent. Everyone dresses in a way that reflects the space; it’s about looking polished without being overly styled.
Give us three words that reflect the vibe of your salon.
Considered. Calm. Contemporary.
