The heart of this design lies in the clash between the interior atmosphere and the outside environment. Converted from the MC8 bus built in the USA back in 1977, a barbershop with the luxurious decor was created while retaining the vehicle’s functionality.
The shop consists of a waiting room, low display cabinets and an area with barber chairs where the most significant part of the customer experience happens.
Clear divisions were formed utilising various shapes and purposes of cabinets – achieving optimum transformation and usage of the long and narrow space within a bus.
Taking user’s habit into account, every barber seat is endowed with a countertop which successfully combined the worktops, lighting and wash stations.
The original bus chairs were revamped and staggered throughout the room as dividing elements. Maintaining similar colour tones, metallic marble and wooden materials were selected along with azure blue stud boards and chairs. This colour effect translates into a sense of space visually. The old beams of the vehicle were cleverly disguised using wood and layers of linear lighting. The light reflection from the pearl effect paints creates a sumptuous curved ceiling.
The interior space of the vehicle is renovated into a luxurious barbershop combined with the client’s preference of the splendid sense of Oriental Express and army blue uniforms. Skillfully using materials such as veneers, metals, marble and leathers, chosen in deep tone, so as to create a solemn and low-key luxurious feeling.
