Judges comments:
“Beautiful use of textures and natural elements.” — Wagner
“The retail area is carefully designed with a spacious layout and complementary lighting, giving ample space for browsing and buying.”
— Soukhopalov

“It is impossible to miss the retail area, which is brightly lit from under the shelves. It helps highlight not only the product, but also the eye-pleasing mix of straight and curved lines in the design of the salon. This creates visual interest and maintains balance in the design. It also makes it hard to resist picking up a product.”
