From the custom-built furnishings to the captivating ceramics and dried floral sculptures, the facial spa design offers many points of visual appeal. Because of this, the backdrop of the shop is painted white. One of the centerpieces of the space is a "chartreuse-colored lacquer table with chunky circular legs and rounded edges designed by Shin Okuda of Los Angeles furniture studio Waka Waka."
