Beauty salon interior design in Riga

For a commercial space Valerija Gelfere quotes after a meeting, because the price depends on floor area and scope. For reference, apartment design projects start at 10 € per m² and 3D visualization at 5 € per m².

Start with zoning and routes: a client should get from reception to the chair without crossing work areas. Then come shadow-free lighting at the mirrors, washable surfaces, enough sockets and space for ventilation and stock.

A salon usually has a reception with a waiting area, workstations, a washing or treatment zone and a back room for staff and stock. Treatments that need quiet, such as skincare and massage, are best placed in a separate room away from the entrance.

Even general lighting plus dedicated light at each workstation with good colour rendering, so hair colour and skin tone look the same as in daylight. The waiting area can have warmer, softer light. Valerija Gelfere marks the lighting on the drawings so electricians put the outlets in the right places.

Materials that stand up to water, dyes and cleaning products: washable paint or panels, moisture-resistant flooring and easy-clean work surfaces. Soft and porous materials are better kept for the waiting area, where they set the mood.

Yes. Valerija Gelfere runs the whole project: the renovation is carried out by trusted crews and companies she works with regularly, and she supervises the work herself so it matches the drawings.

Yes, with a 3D visualization in Homestyler, from 5 € per m². It lets you compare colours, materials and furniture layouts before any money goes into the renovation.

Brand colours, logo and price level should shape the materials, lighting and details, not just the wall colour. A client should feel the same mood at the door and in the chair in front of the mirror.
