NATURAL HOUSE

 

The Transformative Journey of Metamorphosis

Located at the heart of Causeway Bay, Natural House is an all-in-one beauty space as a sanctuary of serenity amidst the city's relentless tempo. The concept of the space is woven from the metaphor of the cocoon, a sacred cradle where beauty is nurtured and unfurled; echoing each of the services they provide, from lashes, nails and hair, to facials, clinical treatments, and massages. Mirroring its name, the space is a canvas of neutral hues, a cocooning atmosphere that wraps visitors in warmth and comfort. With thoughtful zoning, each corner of Natural House is a stage for comfort, promising an experience for all who seek refuge within its embrace.

House of Forme worked with the client on their interior & experience design, project management, brand environments and art direction.

 
 
 
 

A Journey Through The Cocoon.

Upon entry, the handcrafted reception counter immediately draws the eye, its organic-shape and cocoon-inspired hand-plastered paintwork acts as a testament to artisanal skill and the warmth of human touch. A concealed frontlet signage was used to accommodate the brand's delicate logotype. Above, the faux ceiling with a bespoke 'barrisol' feature coupled with unique ceiling finishes command the eye. Giving an impression of loftiness and airiness, creating a more inviting space. Below, the flooring is an artful triad of custom-cut marbles, each piece thoughtfully placed to suggest the rich texture of a cocoon, offering a luxurious experience even under our feet.

By the reception, product displays are seamlessly integrated into the walls or perched upon brass racks with subtle lighting, creating a harmonious display for each product’s beauty. Each doorway is framed with unique ceiling finishes and gentle curves, crafting a tunnel-like transition that guides you into new spaces. Venturing within, you're welcomed into a realm of privacy and exclusivity, with two consultation rooms offering sweeping views over the entirety of Causeway Bay, where natural light spills in. Creating an atmosphere that's at once cozy, bright, and consummately professional. The walls are adorned with butterfly-patterned wallpaper; while the floors are softened with acoustic carpets, ensuring a hushed serenity every consultation.

 
 
 
 

Designed For Tranquility And Practicality.

Going further into the space, you find yourself at the nail bar, thanks to its open floor plan, it is a welcoming area bathed in the panoramic view of Causeway Bay. The setting is a symphony of warmth: rich wooden tones harmonise with the elegance of terrazzo floors; while upholstery in soft beige fabrics, travertine stone accents, and brass touches compose a comforting melody of textures and hues.

This nail bar isn't just a place for manicures; it's a social hub designed for multiplicity—equally suited for nail treatments, casual gatherings, or private events. There's an air of conviviality here, further enhanced by an open coffee bar area where customers are invited to linger, chat, and unwind. Tucked into a cozy corner is a nook dedicated to pedicures. Overall, the planning of the nail bar takes a strategic approach that ensures the rest of the space remains undisturbed, allowing for a seamless blend of lively social interaction and tranquil beauty rituals.

 
 
 
 

A Peaceful Trail through Butterfly Whispers.

Down the corridor, with its bespoke butterfly-patterned acoustic carpet, you're led to the private rooms and salon space. The walls, coated in the same Italian plaster paint, serve as a soft backdrop to lighting fixtures that draw inspiration from the organic forms of nature. Brass signages punctuate the walls while a slot nestles into the wall outside each room for the customer's info card, adding a personal touch in the journey of pampering.

Upon entering a treatment room, peace wraps around you, with walls lined in wooden panels invoking a Zen atmosphere. Every practical need is catered to with concealed storage, seamlessly integrated to maintain the room's clean lines, hiding away towels, trash bin, robes, and other necessities. A counter hosts a scent diffuser, while a dedicated therapist's workstation and a visual merchandising area elegantly display their curated products, balancing both practicality and allure.

At the corridor's end, you enter the salon space characterised by plush chairs set against organic-shaped mirrors. The room features large glass windows inviting an abundance of natural light. The layout includes two designated spots for haircuts and treatments, while a discreet hair wash area is tucked away in the corner. This intimate setup may be compact, but it expands the offerings of the brand to provide a holistic range of services in a peaceful, light-filled environment.

 
 
 
 

A Portal To A Private Sanctuary Of Elegance.

Beyond the brass-framed portal entrance, the space transforms as you enter the washroom area—a fully equipped haven featuring showers, a makeup corner, and toilets. The centrepiece is a bespoke hand wash island, standing alone amidst the terrazzo flooring. Travertine stone finishes wrap around the walls, marrying well with the plaster paint for a cohesive aesthetic. Tucked at the back is a hidden door leading to the staff pantry and office, designed to maintain privacy and the seamless elegance of the space.
