Salon O was designed by Takao Shiotsuka Atelier, It is a hair salon O built in the suburbs. A mountain type design code is repeated from the facade and an opening to interior design. This brings the visual effect of an icon to construction. “Paper-cutting” will be a motif if it says.
It seems to assemble space while connecting the paper which clipped out a chevron figure. A repetition of the same figure produces the delicate deviation from every day required of a hair salon. And it gives the whole building fictiveness.
