I was invited to work on the interior fit -out of sustainable hair salon Mitch in Ashburton. Mitch recycle 98% of their wastage! Even the hair gets composted. They stock Davines and R&CO Bleu, both sustainable, vegan friendly and cruelty free products.

Tara the head stylist and owner had been working from the space for a couple of years, building a solid clientele and it was time to upgrade the interior to align with her brand, ethos and aesthetic.

We started with colour. Yellow to be exact, the signature colour for the brand. We have used varying shades of the colour across a range of materials including glass, timber and tile.

The existing building, a double storey classic 1950’s suburban shopfront had been operating as a hair salon for a number of years prior to Mitch taking over the premises. The interior was a little flat and tired. We stripped back the floor to the original concrete and went about installing cutting and wash stations, a new reception and retail area along with a second floor salon equipped with hair and wash stations, a hand painted mural, Daniel and Emma wall lights and a work station table for clients to work on their laptops whilst having their hair dying done. 

The palette was kept pretty simple: White walls, yellow glass partitions, mustard and white glass mosaic tiles from Arte Domus and hand coloured oak joinery. The piece de resistance is a 70s inspired six arm chandelier from LA based bespoke lighting studio Entler Studio that sits at the front reception desk above a split level bespoke lounge. The bespoke station mirrors are shaped like water droplets.

Plants were a key part of the brief as Tara has been collecting some spectacular indoor plants that her clients had fallen in love with. We enlisted Newpol construction to take on the fit out and the the results have been fantastic.
