Salon & parlour interior design
A salon lives or dies on circulation. Stations, wash units and reception get placed around the path a customer walks, and the plumbing gets planned before the joinery.
- Typical timeline
- Two to four weeks depending on the plumbing work required.
- Where we work
- Kathmandu valley, from Lotse Mall, Machhapokhari
What is included
Plumbing first, joinery second
Wash units decide the plan, because water and drainage are the one thing that cannot be moved cheaply once it is in. We locate the backwash run against the existing supply and waste, then set the styling stations and reception around it. Salons designed the other way round — stations first, wash units wherever they fit — end up with a drain running the length of the floor or a customer walking through the styling row to get their hair washed.
Mirror lighting that does not lie
Light coming from above the mirror throws shadows into the eye sockets and under the chin, which flatters nobody and makes colour work harder to judge. We run the light down both sides of each mirror at face height, at a temperature close to daylight, so your stylist can see what they are actually doing and the customer likes what they see when it is finished.
Storage where the hands are
Every station gets its own drawers, socket and space for a dryer and irons, so nobody is crossing the room mid-blow-dry. Towel and stock storage sits near the wash units rather than in the back room. It sounds small; it is the difference between a salon that can run four chairs at once and one that jams at two.
Areas we cover
We take salon & parlour interior design work across the Kathmandu valley — Machhapokhari, Balaju, Gongabu, New Buspark, Samakhusi, Kalanki, Chabahil, Baneshwor, Koteshwor, Lalitpur, Bhaktapur and the surrounding wards. The workshop is at Lotse Mall, Machhapokhari, Kathmandu, Nepal, so a site visit anywhere in the valley is a short trip rather than a scheduling problem.
Salon & parlour interior design — your questions
We plan it and coordinate it as part of the same job, so the joinery and the pipework are designed together rather than one being cut to fit the other afterwards.
