5 Salon Design Tips

A well-executed beauty salon or spa interior design can communicate and reinforce your brand message and pave the way for a more enjoyable business experience. Thus, it is important to stay up to date on design trends and periodically think about making improvements to ensure the look and feel of your shop is inviting to clients. Most 2021 salon interior design trends are a progression of what we have seen in recent years. Expect a celebration of form following function and a preference for natural, organic, and simple. From a resurfacing of traditional styles to Instagrammable plants, here are the interior trend shifts to watch as we continue into this year.

1. Classic Traditionalism

Traditional and classic designs have developed into a key trend this year, as salons are looking to add layers of function and comfort to their space. This timeless trend epitomizes faded elegance and an unrefined sense of luxury with softer curves, simple decorative carvings, and knotty wood surfaces aged with character.

2. Bringing Nature In

The trend of bringing the outdoors in has been gaining in popularity for some time now, and it’s no surprise. Greenery adds a refreshing component to any interior. Whether faux or live, everyone loves the color and life plants bring to space. Faux greenery is a great option if your space is lacking in natural light or is otherwise inconducive for plant life, but live plants bring an extra edge to the appeal if you can care for them. Living plants are as beautiful as they are beneficial as they can positively impact your health by purifying the air and even improving your mood.

3. Mixing Metals

There are many interior decor guidelines to follow that are practiced and avoided for various reasons, but a rule against mixing metals is not one of them. Mixing a variety of metal finishes creates a polished environment with the sense of an interior space being collected over time. Combining silver, gold, brass, or iron (just to name a few) is a great way to add visual interest and depth.

4. Statement Walls

Statement walls are considered by some to be an overdone Pinterest fad, but they are a great way to add visual interest and they continue to be a major trend seen in salon interiors. There are so many ways to make your statement wall uniquely yours.

5. Tile

Tile is a great way to add texture and color to an otherwise bland expanse of space. With a multitude of different shapes, colors, materials, glazes, prints, and patterns to choose from, tiles continue to evolve and be a trending staple within salon interiors. Whether you choose to create a lavishly unique look with a hand-painted, organic tile made by local artisans or try a fun Moroccan-inspired patterned tile, options are truly endless when it comes to this trend.

Owner’s Special and Update

We are meeting with the architects and builders to finish out the styling spaces. We anticipate starting in September 2023, and think it will take 6-8 weeks to complete the work. Any stylists that sign up during construction can have a good choice of room finish out and room colors. Also, most suites have windows, and these will be given out on a first come first serve basis. The first 10 stylists who sign the lease agreement during construction will also get month 12 of the first 12 months free. We are considering additional specials for the remaining folks on our mailing list. So, please signup today!!

We are also updating our website in the next few weeks to indicate room sizes, whether they have windows, a rough room plan and the square footage. If there are still some suites not occupied, we will be giving bonuses to our stylists for rental referrals.

P.S. The mailing list will be used to determine lease signing order. So, get on our mailing list now! No obligation.
