Named Onico, the hair and nail salon was designed by Japanese architect Ryo Isobe.

The architect imagined the space as a woodland filled with antique objects and other curiosities, including a stuffed owl.

“Our client likes DIY and he makes many objects and furniture by himself,” said Isobe. “So we made the space as if it is a treasure hunt in the woods.”

Birch trees are dotted around the space, amongst a styling area containing assorted chairs and mirrors.

A mixture of lanterns, chandeliers and bare light bulbs are suspended from the ceiling, while fairy lights are strung up beside a cluster of artificial ivy in the room behind.
