Week around the World

Korea

In this second post of "Week around the World" I´m bringing you to South Korea,

specifically to a very special hair salon named-Permy Mi Jan Won.

I am going to call it just Permy from now on.

Permy is a hair salon located in Sugi-ju, South Korea, but it doesn´t look at all

like a common hair salon which we can find anywhere. In this case the owner

wanted his to be unique, so with the help of M4 they achieved their goal by using

a very original design which reminds us of a typical Barbie place.

  

View of the salon from outside.

The outside.

The facade is formed by a big glass wall which includes a door to enter the space.

This makes it possible to appreciate the contemporary style of the place from the outside.

Also Permy´s face is drawn on the wall, which helps to catch the attention of the people

on the street.

This is Permy´s drawing which is located on the outside.

The inside

As we can see on the first picture, in this hair salon of just 36 square meters, only

two colors are used.The intense blue sky one used for the walls, and the bright white

one used for some of the furnitures.

Inside we can appreciate the simplicity of the decoration and the imagination used

for it.

The salon keeps a comic character throughout.

Inside we can find Permy´s face on the wall 

along with a collection of cups with her face showing her different moods, even with a mustache.

As we can see the decor is simple and minimalist, with small

and studied details.

A vintage touch is added by using those customer´s chair

which reminds us of the ones used a while ago.

Also the metal white chairs works on the opposite direction

since it gives a modernity touch.

Another thing which catches our attention are the multiple

lamps hanging from the ceiling.

The are made from transparent bins.

I would definitely love to have a place like this one close to my house, what about you?

Hope you´ve enjoyed the post!

Tomorrow we will stay in South Korea and we will visit a very cute coffee shop!
