About Maru Maru Lash まつげ美容サロン

Maru Maru Lashは、台湾・台北にある78平方メートルのまつげ美容サロンである。元の空間は幅わずか3.3メートルの細長く不整形なもので、隣接する建物に遮られ自然光がまったく入らなかった。まつげを思わせる曲線が室内を流れるように巡り、ブランドロゴと呼応する。エントランスのガラスブロックはプライバシーを保ちながら日光を採り入れる。とうもろこし繊維で織られたカーテンが各室を仕切り、柔らかな影を落とす。鉱物塗料が空気中の汚染物質を吸着する。各施術室は独立しており、妨げられることなく施術を受けられる。

Unique Properties: This design epitomizes a harmonious blend of aesthetics, functionality, and sustainability within the beauty service realm. What sets it apart is the meticulous integration of eyelash-shaped lines, eco-friendly materials, and gentle curves, creating a visually captivating and comfortable space. Its strength lies in prioritizing holistic care, offering mind-body integration services, and ensuring privacy through independent spaces. The unique features include a commitment to eco-consciousness, employing materials like corn fiber for curtains, and using mineral paint for improved air quality. This design stands out for its dedication to enhancing customer experiences while minimizing environmental impact, setting a new standard for innovative and sustainable beauty service environments.

Production Technology: The original base was a narrow and irregularly shaped space, with a width of only 3.3 meters and a narrow front and wide back, with no natural light from neighboring buildings. Therefore, in the spatial planning, curves were used as the core element, flowing smoothly throughout the entire space to create a more fluid and comfortable space for users. At the same time, glass bricks were arranged at the entrance to allow natural light to flow in while maintaining privacy.

Material: glass bricks, mineral coating, linear-shaped curtains crafted from the environmentally friendly material of corn fiber.
Design Challenge: The curvilinear design emerges in response to environmental demands, necessitating the planning of the desired number of seats within the narrow site while considering smooth circulation paths. By removing spatial divisions and employing boundary-defying curved arcs, we blur the scale of confined spaces, igniting a sense of exploration within the space and resolving the boredom of immediate comprehension. There is no need to sacrifice privacy for openness or succumb to oppression due to the seclusion of independent spaces; instead, we pursue a third option that balances openness and privacy.
Research: Because we want every customer to feel cared for and treated with gentleness during the service process, unlike other eyelash beauty businesses, we provide a fully comprehensive service in a private and independent space without disturbance. From the initial consultation to the eyelash grafting process, every customer can enjoy full care and respect.
Through design, we assist the owners in targeting the middle to upper-class clientele, focusing on the integrated physical and mental services demanded by customers of this caliber. We elevate the beauty service industry from an external focus to an internal one, providing care not only for the body but also for the mind.
All designs are tightly aligned with the objective of "reducing interference." Upon entering the operational area, the ceiling height is lowered, employing compressed surroundings to create a sheltered and stable spatial sensation, while alleviating visual oppression caused by dense beams. The display cabinets in niche form maintain the purity and harmony of the space, reducing protruding structures and minimizing visual disruptions caused by the exhibited items.
Inspiration: As the saying goes, "smile is the most beautiful curve in the world," and the same can be said for the graceful curves of eyelashes.

The smiling curves resembling eyelashes correspond to the brand logo. The interior delineation embraces linear-shaped curtains crafted from the environmentally friendly material of corn fiber, cascading light and shadow akin to eyelashes, fostering aesthetic resonance between consumers and the brand.
Project Duration: The project commenced in Taipei, Taiwan, in December 2021, and concluded in the same city in July 2022. Subsequently, it continues to serve the public beyond July 2023.
Operation Flow: Characterized by eyelash-shaped lines, mineral paint, and gentle curves, aims to create an environment that goes beyond mere functionality.

We elevate the beauty service industry from an external focus to an internal one, providing care not only for the body but also for the mind. Each room is independently crafted to evoke a sense of prestige and elegance, enveloping visitors in a cozy environment that promotes tranquility and relaxation. Environmentally friendly mineral coatings capable of absorbing air pollutants are utilized, heightening the comfort of the space.
