About Island Salone di Parrucchiere
Island è un salone di parrucchiere ricavato all'interno di un'abitazione di quarant'anni di 165 metri quadrati. La ristrutturazione rinuncia a decorazioni elaborate. Tronchi decorativi riciclati sostituiscono le pareti interne e funzionano da schermi divisori, creando un effetto trasparente, un ambiente più luminoso e un percorso semplice e chiaro. Un abbondante fogliame verde e piante rampicanti riempiono lo spazio. Un sistema di irrigazione a gravità basato sul principio del sifone sostituisce l'irrigazione meccanica, riempiendo in modo uniforme undici vasche e aggiungendo il suono dell'acqua che gocciola. Il progetto porta elementi naturali in un contesto urbano.

- Production Technology
- Recycled decorative logs are used to partition the space, and walls are abandoned to enhance the flow of the space with the see-through effect created by the logs. It is, therefore, brighter and breaths a new trend into the space.
Simple physics is applied to the watering system. Energy-consumed and difficult to maintain mechanical irrigation is replaced. Meanwhile, the space is filled with the sound of dripping water with help of gravity-powered watering system. - Design Challenge
- The scene of dense tropical greenery and climbing plants is moved into the interior space. One can see the abundant green foliage, smell the plants and listen to the sound of dripping water and be temporarily rid of the fuss in the city and eventually reach a harmonious balance between nature and city.

- Using siphon theory where air pressure pushes down on water and water fills up 11 tanks evenly in the corners until water supply is stopped.
Decorative logs are tied and wrapped with cotton and linen fabric to allow water to be evenly distributed to the logs thus climbing plants can absorb water evenly.
An urban space is enriched with nature elements and a simple physical principle. - Inspiration
- Birds sing, water flows, wood and plants release the fragrance of nature. A place, filled with greenery and vitality, differentiates itself from the rest of hair salons and reinterpret the spatial concept.
- Project Duration
- The project started in November 2019 and finished in December 2019 in Taipei.
- Operation Flow
- It is intended to introduce nature elements into an urban space with simplicity principle and thus provides another form of design theory.
