The industrial style continues to be popular in the design of hair salons. An interior with character will be appreciated by the clients who like functional and unique design solutions. An important stage in the arrangement of a hair salon in the industrial style, also known as the loft style, is selection of salon furniture. The furniture that will ensure high comfort of service but also highlight the style of the interior.

The LOFT collection perfect for industrial interiors

The entire LOFT furniture collection, characterised by minimalist design, has been created with industrial style hair salons in mind. It comprises as many as four types of styling units. All of them have an openwork, black, metal structure characteristic of the industrial style.

In order to optimally use the salon space, we recommend the island styling units LOFT IV with four seats or double version LOFT II. The LOFT S styling unit will be perfect for smaller salons. The LOFT styling unit with shelves on both sides provides plenty of storage space for cosmetics and accessories.

The LOFT collection also comprises a classic styling chair with black, metal armrests available on different bases (star, square, disc) and in a version with a footrest. It also includes an industrial style wash unit equipped with a practical shelf for shampoos.

Hairdressing furniture in an industrial salon

When choosing furniture for a loft style hair salon, go for simple designs and metal frames. Styling chairs and matching styling units will have a major impact on the character of the interior. The selection of upholstery textures and colours gives you an opportunity to create a unique atmosphere.

In our offer, you’ll find a wide variety of styling chairs that will go perfectly with industrial interiors. We recommend the ENZO styling chair with black, metal armrests metal armrest with wooden armpads or the redesigned PIK styling chairs with matte black armrests and the perfectly matching square, black base. If you opt for a slightly more modern design and need more flexibility in arrangement of the furniture, you’ll surely appreciate the GHOST styling chair and the mobile styling unit FLEX.

Remember that mirrors, which visually enlarge the interior, are an important feature of the industrial design. If you prefer slightly colder interiors, you can go for the styling units with stainless steel frames – KIRKE or WENUS. However, if you’ve decided to introduce elements made of laminated board, add styling chairs which finish will go well with the reception desk and other salon furniture. For example the DEPO styling unit with LED lighting or the RENO styling unit with a footrest and a small shelf for the customer’s cup of coffee. For minimalist spaces, we also recommend the BONA and SIMPLE styling units.

Wash units are a must in a hair salon. LADY Y TINA and LADY Y PIK will be perfect for an industrial interior. They’re minimalist and come with a black or white basin in a wide range of finishes. If you prefer a larger seat and you’re not limited by small space, you can go for the fully upholstered GLOBE wash unit, the double wash unit MALI SOFA II or even the three-person MALI SOFA III. Select the upholstery that will best highlight your salon’s style.

Select styling furniture that will highlight the loft-like character of the interior right at the entrance. Choose a reception desk that will best suit the rest of decor. The KIRKE reception desk with a mirror in a stainless steel frame on the front panel will be perfect for raw spaces. With the right colour of the LOFT reception desk, you can visually warm the interior without losing its industrial character, all thanks to the black, metal frame and the desk’s minimalist design. If you prefer a reception desk made entirely of laminated board, the RENO reception desk will be a good solution. You can match two different colours of laminated board, which allows you to adjust it to the rest of the interior. The reception desk comes in two sizes, so you won’t be limited by your salon’s footprint.

Loft style hair salon design

Minimalist and raw industrial design suits especially large, post-factory spaces and warehouses readapted for services and housing. The loft design can also be introduced in tenement houses or new, even smaller spaces.

When designing loft interiors, you can leave pipes, structural elements and ventilation ducts uncovered. They should bring to mind abandoned buildings or old factories. The industrial design is characterised by the use of natural materials – metal, wood, cement and brick as well as subdued colours – greys, blacks, whites, beiges.

A loft hair salon doesn’t have to be cold, though. A pleasant, almost cosy character can be achieved through selection of furniture finishes in bold, distinctive colours, such as red (P 95) or burgundy (P 10) styling chair upholstery. It’s also a good idea to think about paintings that match the character of the interior. Plants will be a great counterpoint to the rawness of this style.

Empty spaces are crucial in the loft design. We use only indispensable elements in order to maintain the sense of spaciousness. This is why it’s so important to select the styling furniture that allows you to create the industrial atmosphere and doesn’t overwhelm the interior. AYALA makes it easy!
