The Design

About Taipei Eros Hoer Salon

D'Hoeresalzer baséieren op der Geometrie vu schwaarz, wäiss a groe Faarwen. D'Gesten vun Hoereschneiden sinn an d'Masséierung vun de sculpturalen Entitéite iwwersat. D'dräieckeg Motiv formt déi funktionell Kubel a Fliger vu Plafong bis op Buedem duerch d'Aktioune vu Spullen, Ausschneiden, an Nähen. D'Liichtbarren, déi an de Scheidlinnen agebonne sinn, droen zu villen Beliichtungsgürtel bäi, déi als Zousazbeliichtung déngen, wärend den Zoustand vun der nidderegter Plafong ze léisen. Si verlängeren sech a rullen mat der Reflexioun vum grousse Spigel, a frittéiert sech tëscht de Fligeren an der Dräidimensionalitéit.

Unique Properties: In order to make it an innovative, fashionable, and enduring place, They integrate regional characters into the design. The geometry of black, white, and grey colors transform the layers of the space while ensuring its functionality. Here the framed landscape becomes a diorama with flowing junctures of inside and outside that echoes the essence of hair design.
Dimensions & Packaging: An area of space is 198 square meters.
Tags: 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.
