Barbara Weigand’s three favorite features of Copper River Salon and Spa’s design include:
The light design was selected to make sure that it was the best solution for the environment and the clients. The Minardi LED lights are strategically positioned to give the cleanest view and they are the most efficient and eco-friendly option available.
The natural light that Copper River Salon and Spa offers. There are two enormous picture windows in the front of the salon which flood the waiting area and the stylists’ chairs with intense natural light.
The copper paint covers most of the pipes, so the copper theme has been incorporated into other design features such as salon accessories, mirrors, and candles.
