Stylish salon interiors from around the world
Style Club, Dublin
With more than 70 salons, Peter Mark is the M&S of Irish hairdressing – frequented by everyone from top models to your Nan. And adding new fuel to the fire with an altogether different target market is Style Club – a brave and bold, new salon brand from the group.
Located on South William Street, Dublin’s premier boutique, café and hairdressing row, Style Club is for the young and young at heart. It’s about hair, fashion and music, with DJs, movie screenings and Fashion TV on stream. The salon stimulates imagination and creativity, with almost everything custom-made, from the wallpaper to the bespoke artwork all the way from LA.
The design brief for the building, pioneered by Peter Mark founders, Peter and Mark Keaveney, saw the collaboration of a remarkable network of designers from Douglas Wallace Architects, Wink Lighting, architect Robin Mandal and Studio AAD. Chief of the movement was New Yorker, Garry Cohn, architect at Douglas Wallace in Dublin. “I was thinking of Alice in Wonderland as a punk rocker [as inspiration for this project],” he says.
The interesting concept is a den of quirk and curiosity, with 26 styling stations for brisk business. Standout features include the silver padded reception desk, a comical cow painting in the bathroom, a white floor with hair clipping tiles and a wall of convex mirrors, which amplify the psychedelic space even more.
