This beauty salon is part of a new construction project with three flats and a loft. An exciting part of the design is the notion of the shop. This acts as an axis in the building. The commercial space occupies the entire width of the building plot and has its entrance at street level.
To create maximum shop space on the ground-floor we have accommodated the entrance to the upstairs flats at level -1. The entrance zone is accessible from the street via a staircase. This then runs into a slope leading to the indoor area so that it is also easy to access the bicycle stands at the level of the cellar by bike. This also creates a unique short-cut from the street to the indoor area. A glass floor in the shop provides daylight for this underground corridor.
The commercial space is glazed almost entirely. In the rear wall the beauty specialists and customers have a view of a small patio garden.
