Now this is a house I wish I lived in! Check out these photos of the amazing classic Singleton house designed by Richard Neutra in 1959. It is now home to the ever stylish Vidal Sassoon, his wife Ronnie and their two Shih Tzus. It hasn’t been an easy road though as the house was […]

Hair Illustrations
In keeping with my current fascination with hair illustrations, check out Maria Gil Ulldemolins fantastic drawings. She lives in Madrid and has done some wonderful detailed illustrations of hair styles. I love the texture she’s been able to convey in these up do’s and that the drawings are done in black and white.

Fantastic window graphics for salon in Denmark
I was immediately drawn to these whimsical window graphics designed by Museum Studio and Paper for the Kaiserschnitt Hair Salon in Denmark. What a refreshing departure from those 80’s stock decals that you see plastered on the windows of so many salons. With all the creative options available today, it’s a shame more people don’t […]

Creative Ad for Koleston Hair Colour Product
I came across this billboard advertisement and was quite impressed with how creatively it expressed the product. Koleston is a hair colour product and this ad shows the models hair change colour as the sky and time of day changes. A simple yet very effective result.

Black Beauty
I’m loving the beautiful black aesthetic of Gum Salon located in Milan’s stylish Ticanese area. They’ve used quite a few traditional elements but have created a really modern feel through the monochromatic colour scheme. The black tile, painted brick and Hollywood dressing room style lighting are all very simple but come together beautifully. Their logo […]

The Sartorialist
Many of you may already know who Scott Schuman is but for those of you who don’t let me introduce The Sartorialist. Scott used to own a showroom in New York for young designers but became tired of what he said was a disconnect between the fashion industry and real fashionable people. He decided to […]

Winter White Salon
I’ve come across sets of photos of this crisp winter white salon from Poland twice this year and thought it was about time I posted it to the blog. (First seen as a 3d model at Dezeen and then in real life at ArchDaily) Designed for Bartosz Janusz by moomoo architects, the space was inspired […]

Lovely dark and sexy hair spa in Indonesia
Chrystalline Architects have designed a lovely dark and sexy hair spa in Indonesia called Hairu. They offer massage and treatment for hair loss. I love their use of wooden slatting as a screening device. On the inside the white curtains keeps things nice, light and airy. Found via ArchDaily. I can’t find Hairu’s Website if […]
