destilat Design Studio, an award-winning Austrian interior design firm, has completed Peaches — an exclusive beauty salon located in a prominent position on Vienna's Karlsplatz.
Peaches' new design is characterized by a clear design language, high-quality materials, and a subtle tension that sets it apart from conventional salon environments. The interior is built on the principle of homogeneous surfaces, where floor, wall, and ceiling visually merge through an elaborate spatula technique. The subtly rounded transitions reinforce a monolithic yet dematerialized effect. The staircase to the upper floor was designed as a spatial highlight.
Despite the compact 120-square-meter volume, intensive floor plan development coordinated with functional requirements and clientele needs enabled maximum comfort and freedom of movement. The understated elegance, on the other hand, is contrasted with striking pink color accents strategically placed to create visual tension and recognition.
