The shopfront signage features a custom lily flower motif crafted from slender LED strips, creating an illuminated outline that floats gracefully on the glass façade. The design balances simplicity with sophistication, acting as a soft yet distinctive beacon within the bustling retail environment. The light’s gentle glow interacts beautifully with the reflections of the mall’s geometric skylight above, reinforcing the salon’s identity as a calm, design-conscious destination. This minimal yet striking feature enriches the entrance, complementing the clean aesthetic of the interior beyond.

At the entrance, the design introduces a bespoke illuminated motif: a stylised lily flower, created using warm-toned LED strip lighting delicately applied to the glass façade. This element directly references the salon’s name while providing a visual identity that is immediately recognisable yet understated. Rather than opting for heavy branding, the lily outline becomes a symbolic gesture, transforming the shopfront into a glowing canvas that captures attention through elegance rather than excess.

Its position on the glass façade ensures that it interacts dynamically with its surroundings. During the day, the light outline harmonises with the reflections of the shopping centre’s geometric skylight, creating layered visuals where architecture and branding merge. In the evening or low-light conditions, the motif comes alive, casting a warm, inviting glow that frames the entryway and contrasts with the cooler tones of the surrounding environment.

This approach to signage design reflects the wider concept of the salon: to create an atmosphere of refinement and tranquillity without overwhelming the senses. It successfully blends function and artistry, using light not only to mark the space but also to set the tone for the experience within—a calm, detail-oriented environment dedicated to beauty and care.
