“Guests often describe the first salon as having a homelike feel,” says Ahmad. “We wanted to carry that through while creating a space that would also support more complex services. The aim was to design a place that feels personal and welcoming, while being fully functional for both guests and staff.”

This 80m² apartment in the new "Sobytie" residential complex is more than just a home—it’s a reflection of its owner: a 24-year-old woman who adores pastel tones and delicate details. The challenge was complex: to blend classical aesthetics with the lightness of minimalism, transforming the space into a "jewelry box."
