Pastel pink, blue, geometric shapes and repetitive patterns - this is how the interior of the Mi Bella beauty salon located in Gdynia can be described in a nutshell. Responsible for this colorful project are Marta Komorowska, Bartosz Koszalka - architects from bkm group. studio The designers created an open space filled with multifunctional, specially designed furniture and appropriate light, which not only create the character of the interior, but also improve the work of the salon.

The salon's area of eighty square meters has been thoughtfully divided into functional areas closely related to various fields of cosmetology. There is a common open space with a reception and waiting area, manicure and make-up stations. In addition, there are two spa rooms and a restroom available to customers.

harmony, but not boredom
Our desire was to re-solve solid and functional issues for the furniture and create a space that is harmonious and in no way boring, the authors say.
Light pink and blue are the dominant colors and accents of the interior. They contrast strongly with the bright, monochromatic floor and walls. The architects designed round-shaped furniture and introduced arches, and their rhythmic repetitions strongly define the space. The introduced curves soften the straight lines used in the design, visible on the walls, upholstery or reception counter.
Appropriate lighting is also an important element of the interior

Ovals, curves and arches work well in both extremely modern interiors and those maintained in a minimalist spirit. Most importantly, the interior design is stylistically consistent with Mi Bella's visual identity, the architects add.

Open space and multifunctional furniture
The architects' goal was to create an open space for the salon, accessible to all. They designed a large manicure table and an open makeup niche where clients and employees can talk freely. It was also important to create furniture that can be used in multiple ways.

The idea was to make the products more accessible and more comfortable while doing the job. Like the reception desk, which has other functions besides greeting guests or answering the phone - it serves as a display for beauty products for sale, and on the other hand as a place to hang customers' coats, the authors say.

a play of colors and light
The design of the salon can be described as a game of colors and light. Each spa room has its own individual basic color - light pink or blue - and a specially designed contrasting wallpaper with a floral motif. The authors tried to keep the interior consistent, incorporating all the necessary elements to enhance the work, such as fixtures that provide linear and evenly distributed light.
The architects combined aesthetics of the space and ergonomics of work

In a beauty salon, clients should relax and forget about their daily worries, which is why the interior climate is such an important factor in the design. The salon was designed with attention to detail - the aesthetics of the space and the ergonomics of work - the function of individual zones and the furniture were discussed with the investor already at the concept stage, the architects conclude.
