STUDS Hair Salon / nevertheless / Yusuke Sagawa Architects

The planned building is a three-story steel-framed structure located just a few minutes' walk from Kumagaya Station. Built approximately 60 years ago, the building has served various purposes, with the first and second floors being used as tenant spaces. About two years ago, the owner rented the first floor and opened a beauty salon. However, as the space became too cramped, they decided to renovate the second floor. The owner's request was to create a new esthetic space on the second floor, in addition to the hair salon, to accommodate facial treatments and other beauty services.
