The application of an existing set of brand standards were applied to this new barber shop location on the Hamilton Mountain. Careful attention in creating a detailed construction package with drawings and specification for the contractor meant this project was executed efficiently.

The intent behdind this project was to create a space that felt more welcoming than a typical autoshop. Through the use of colour, materials and strategic furniture choices, we created an environment that would encourage car owners to enjoy the space while they waited for their vehicle maintenance.

The design of this eco conscious salon prioritized reducing waste and selecting materials that aligned with the values of the company. Quality millwork from the previous salon location was incorporated into the new space along with other unique pieces. Products with recycled content, such as the acoustical room dividers, made of receyled PET plastics, served to delineate different zones of the salon.

The opportunity to make a great first impression for visitors, was the top priority for this project. This unique historic property was already a great draw for the local community. However, renovating the retail, reception and meeting spaces created a refreshed and welcoming space.
