This close-up captures the layered functionality of the entrance shelving, designed to hold beauty products while softening the transition between reception and treatment zones. The slim wooden shelves are illuminated by integrated LED strips, subtly highlighting displayed items and adding depth. Above, cascading greenery introduces a touch of biophilic design, balancing the clean lines of the joinery with organic softness. This composition makes the shelving feel both purposeful and decorative, turning what could be a purely functional screen into a lively and inviting design feature.
The entrance shelving acts as more than a simple display; it’s a thoughtful partition that guides the salon’s spatial flow. Crafted with slim, rounded-edged shelves in light ash timber, the unit maintains an open and airy presence while creating a distinct reception area. Integrated LED lighting runs along the underside of each shelf, ensuring products—such as skincare treatments and nail care essentials—are attractively highlighted without overpowering the soft ambient lighting of the salon.
Above, cascading Epipremnum aureum (pothos) plants spill gently over the top shelf, enhancing the shelving’s visual impact and tying into the wider biophilic strategy of the interior. This introduction of greenery adds warmth and liveliness, balancing the creamy textures and natural timber palette found throughout the space.
From a design perspective, the shelving’s placement and transparency are deliberate: it acts as a screen that subtly separates the more public-facing reception from the intimate treatment area while preserving sightlines through to the salon’s heart. This ensures that the first impression is one of openness and calm, with a curated display of products and natural elements establishing the salon’s identity as a tranquil, beauty-focused destination.
