Salon "Christie" (Michurinsky Prospect, d. 23) - one of the few where it was possible to combine the necessary functionality and memorable appearance. The young architect Konstantin Vernigor introduced a zest and charm to the interior in order to justify the purpose of the establishment - infinitely devotional service to beauty. Geometry, clarity of lines, color purity, original lighting - the main components of many of his works, and the interior of the cabin is no exception. In space - an elongated rectangle - it was necessary to accommodate the maximum number of jobs for stylists and hairdressers, as well as various treatment rooms. As a result, the character of the interior was formed with the help of a semicircle, which also made it possible to arrange two additional jobs. Plasterboard beams visually reduce a very high ceiling and at the same time serve as supporting structures for workplaces. Thanks to the skillful selection of finishing materials, the successful combination of cold blue and warm yellow colors, the neon illumination turns a small space into a kind of crystal palace of beauty, where magical transformations take place like a fairy tale.
