Residing within a structure that also serves as a permanent residence, the Q-Pot Hair Salon in Taiwan’s Kaohsiung City is a stunning space that fuses the atmosphere of a contemporary art gallery with a chic industrial salon. Retrofitted with vintage fixtures and pipes, the salon designed by studio HAO Design boasts a design theme that ranges from aviation-inspired to vintage to that of a boxing ring.
The unique space is an example of how a salon can think outside of the box and challenge what consumers are expecting out of the experience, both out of the service and the environment.
This industrial-inspired hair salon is characterized by its colorful antiques, storey-spanning decorative curtains and mismatched furniture that combine for a one-of-a-kind experience.
