Located in the heart of Montreal, the nail salon Les ongles Diva Nails is looking to offer a new experience to its customers. The project tends to explore the theme of flowering. The space is designed to offer its clientele a temporary escape from urban life while meeting the demands and needs of the modern person who seeks agility and practicality in beauty services. The brand identity is the embryo of the project. It goes far beyond aesthetics by creating a space that allows for a better user experience and the creation of a sense of belonging for the customer. Inspired by the lotus flower, the project maintains a close relationship with nature, not only through the use of color, flowers, and small-scale plantings, but also through more subtle solutions implemented in the design. In other words, the patterns, furniture shapes, lighting and other components of the project were all carefully selected and in the spirit of biophilia (seeking connections with nature and other life forms). Two distinct areas of activity are provided due to technical constraints and specific ventilation needs. One area is for nail art, while the other focuses on manicures and pedicures. The reception area delimits these zones and distributes the services. Presentation areas nod to the shape of the nails by creating arches. These recessed storage units are designed to showcase the large selection of nail polish colors offered by the salon. The custom-made worktables are a perfect reminder of this curve. Overall, the project reflects its owners, accessible and inviting.
