The SUITE Beauty Studio project was implemented in 2023. The beauty studio is located on the first floor of a 19th century building in the historical heart of St Petersburg.
The interior is based on SUITE's signature color scheme. Milk chocolate and soft cream colors are complemented by contrasting accents of rich burgundy and dark blue. The main space of the salon combines a lobby area with a store where you can buy care products and art objects from young local artists, a manicure area with a long table for 4 masters, and a hairdresser salon. Separate rooms provide pedicures, body and facial care, and a staff room. There is a space for makeup artists at the side of the courtyard, which is connected to the main salon by a corridor-gallery. Most of the corners in the rooms are rounded to give the project softness and complexity.
The SUITE interior has a minimum of decor, but each item is chosen consciously. There are ceramics designed by Lyuba Kanniki on the shelves of the store, and paintings by artist Tima Illarionov hang in the corridor with Konos studio stools on the opposite side. The massage room features a wooden Homerave chair and a vintage Licalla lamp. The walls of the pedicure room are decorated with paintings by Ivan Shkulip, and the hair salon is decorated with porcelain bows by Masha Lam.
SUITE is a new project format that combines a beauty salon and an exhibition space for young artists.
