“The first impression” 7th floor reception desk and lobby
NEXT is a startup beauty brand creaed by a Kore an woman. The brand focuses on producs that are vegan and inclusive. My inspiration comes from the owner’s Korean background and feaures symbolism, color reference and hierachial order. The color red, inspired by the Korean flag, means positivity. White represents peace and purity. Biophilic references are made throughout the space to seamlessly relate to the brand’s sustainable focus.
The central, mirrored monumental staircases provide symmetry and balance. The stairs encompass two crucial zones: the reception on the 7th floor and the work cafe on the 8th floor. I created a focal point with my mirrored logo behind the reception desk. Custom tile with the "X" design is featured on the reception desk and upstairs in the work cafe.
