the lounge area, somewhere to read and wait in comfort instead of having to look at your unfinished self
logical reconfiguration of living area
unsound space to light, fresh kitchen

bathroom ..? to bathroom!
scenic route to scenic views
a welcome desk which you can now see
the shower room has been opened up to create a large lounge diner
compact can still be very bijou, darling!
the parents suite was relocated to free up access to two unused bedrooms to become the snug and, behind the white door, the washroom
lined up or private stations ... ?
total rethink
light, bright and simple
this paved courtyard is now a relaxed family garden
the parental suite has made way for the cosy family snug
a question of balance
confused to clear
breakfast bar with a view
this unused descending staircase now leads up towards a bedroom and shower room, giving a little touch of curiosity..
two major supporting walls are removed to create a light, bright living area
open to view ... to cosy and private

conviviality
the relaxing beauty room
the bedroom, once a lounge now shows off its beautiful original features

the cosy light lounge area
a space to wait in comfort for your appointment
the former kitchen has been transformed into a sophrology consulting room
much more fluid, visually and physically
the former bedroom is now a bright lounge diner which has kept all its character features

the salon's customers are no longer in view and feel more at ease during their wash and colour
the w.c. is transformed and now has its wash basin
the impractical shower room has been opened out into the lounge to create the dining area
the staff area and mixing room are clearer and organised
a clean powder room to check the end result
dull grey and closed in to lighter, brighter and fluid
this once unused room has become a beautiful, simple shower room
light and bright ... it's sometimes better to be light, bright and cosy with it
the salon's new exterior
basic • clear • logic
