Salon Hearts’ second store, “He:arts Hannam,” is located in Hannam-dong, the heart of Seoul and a hub of trends. The layout places the central lounge at the core, with the spa zone to the left, the makeup zone in the middle, and the hair zone to the right. These three sensory spaces define the store, while staff areas are positioned at the back to separate workflows and circulation naturally. To complement the site’s low and horizontally stretched proportions, the central masses are kept low and unified under a flat ceiling, which creates a sense of openness and breadth.
Upon entering, visitors encounter the lounge. The counter, softly illuminated translucent glass boxes, and the interplay of straight and curved masses physically express “Correspondence of the Senses.” At the center, an artwork by artist Jisun Kim embodies “textures of perception,” symbolizing the identity of He:arts Hannam.
Passing through the corridor beside the counter, one enters the hair zone. Here, hair units are arranged between staggered volumes made of contrasting materials and forms, naturally blocking views between clients and creating a more private atmosphere. Above, the treatment zone is filled with natural light, offering warmth and comfort to clients who spend longer hours there, easing the sense of waiting.
At the end of the lounge’s left corridor, two spa rooms—one private and one shared—are located. The corridor itself serves as a transitional zone, opening perspectives and introducing rhythm to the spatial flow. The spa rooms are not merely spaces for shampooing; they are places where another layer of sensation opens. In contrast to the store’s overall tone and manner, the darker ambience and the subtle yet intense glow of the walls create a striking interplay. This balance allows clients to fully immerse in their senses, encountering an extraordinary, out-of-the-ordinary experience.
The makeup zone, in contrast, embraces brightness. With satin acrylics and glass, it forms luminous volumes that seem to hold light itself. Clients can receive makeup services in a transparent, refreshing, and comfortable atmosphere.
Overall, the store embodies a minimal design language, enriched with a variety of textures. Special painting, bead-blasted metal, satin acrylic, and other contrasting materials add depth to the bright tonal palette. The brand’s neutral identity is expressed through accents of blue, cork linoleum, and eco-friendly finishes—bringing a sense of sustainability as well as playful vibrancy.
