The Design

About Taipei Eros Haarsalon

Die haarsalonne is gebaseer op die meetkunde van swart, wit en grys kleure. Die gebare van haarsny word vertaal in die massering van die beeldhou-entiteite. Die driehoekige motief vorm die funksionele kubusse en vliegtuie van plafon tot vloere deur die stapel, sny en naaldwerk. Die ligstawe wat in die skeidslyne ingebed is, dra by tot talle liggordels wat dien as aanvullende beligting terwyl die toestand van die verlaagde plafon opgelos word. Hulle strek en kronkel met die weerkaatsing van die groot spieël, wat vry tussen die vliegtuie en die driedimensionaliteit gly.

salon, innovative, fashionable, white, light, art
Production Technology
The triangular motif shapes the functional cubes and planes from ceiling to floors through the actions of piling, cutting, and sewing.
Design Challenge
They also extend and meander with the reflection of the large mirror surface, shuttling freely between the planes and the three-dimensionality.
Research
As a leading brand among the hair salons, they treat the physical space of the shop as the embodied identity at the fringe of the downtown Taipei.
Inspiration
The whitewashed background refers to the pure motivation of the brand. The gestures of hair-cutting are translated into the massing of the sculptural entities. Here, light defines the threshold between the tangible and the intangible realms and therefore becomes the index for circulation and division in the space.
Project Duration
The project started in February 2016 in Tapei city and finished in June 2016 in Tapei city.
Operation Flow
In contrast with the stability of the seating area, the layered and displaced vision integrates and enriches the space. The juxtaposition of the movement and stillness defines the singular dynamics of the hair salon.
