Project's Summary

Rouge Nail Bar is a stunning new location in Bucharest, reimagined by Yellow Office Architecture. This project sought to breathe new life into an existing space, originally designed by architect Corvin Cristian, while preserving key aesthetic elements. The name, NAIL & BAR, inspired the design concept, creating a versatile environment for patrons to enjoy various services beyond just nail care. The result is a vibrant and inviting space that invites relaxation and social interaction.

The design philosophy hinges on a clever juxtaposition of industrial and warm elements. The use of raw materials such as concrete and metal, alongside visible piping, establishes an industrial vibe. This is beautifully balanced by the incorporation of warm-toned wood and soft fabrics, which provide inviting contrasts. The bold use of primary colors—blue and red—throughout the space adds a lively touch, making the environment feel both dynamic and welcoming.

Layout plays a crucial role in the experience at Rouge Nail Bar. The centerpiece of the design is a bar-height community table, which serves as the nail workstation, fostering a sense of togetherness among clients. Surrounding areas are skillfully arranged with varying seating heights and wooden dividers, which define distinct zones while maintaining a cohesive flow. This thoughtful approach ensures that every visit is enjoyable and comfortable, regardless of the services chosen.
