Confection perfection


Finished at last! Over the past few months we have been following the progress of a Marie Antoinette inspired confection of a hair salon designed by Scott Weston .... from intricate scale model through mock up and manufacture. Now Scott has sent us photos of the finished salon.


“As promised here are some images taken at practical completion with my builder of the hair salon. Everyone from builder, sub-contractor to client just thinks it looks like the model & are all very proud. We built it in record time 6 weeks from shell to beautifully built joinery fitments. Our client's chic & quirky french style salon opens this Monday 22nd September 2008 at the IVY.”

Stunning! Stunning! Stunning!

I walked down the main laneway of Ivy last week and can't believe I didn't notice.
The Renya Xydis salon in Castlereagh Street in Sydney also looks great,has been featured in Real Living magazine.

I just checked his website 2 days ago for an update and I was speechless with what I saw. I can't wait to see it for real.

I am dying. Marie-Antoinette is one of my fave movies thanks to the set design.

That design is painted on isn't it? Or is the surface raised by that design In that traditional way of french design.

I'm gonna be honest with you: I'm probably gonna go to ANY salon that offers me cupcakes while I get my haircut! This one is SO interesting! Although, not really a fan of the ivy motif.

Me 2. I'll definitely go for the cupcakes, then the haircut.'>
