About Gold Feet Bay Pedicure Salon
Gold Feet Bay is a pedicure health club in Yichun, Jiangxi, China. The interior design is based on Zen culture. The background wall of the reception desk carries 145 hand-made ceramic eaves tiles, copied from Han Dynasty palace decoration, which give the space a sense of history. A quiet tea room and white lotus decorations along the stair edges connect the different function areas. Some stairs were added beside the original elevator, and a water pool was built below the stairs. Candlestick lamps, bamboo tube lamps and landscape lights create a calm and relaxing atmosphere.
