Commercial Interior Design for Nail Salon

As architects specialising in commercial interior projects, our approach to this beauty salon in Brisbane City was grounded in both function and emotion. The brief called for a refined environment that supported a full suite of skin and beauty treatments, including hair removal, facials, and body services all within a layout that felt calm, private, and efficient.

We began by developing detailed floor plans that balanced back-of-house operations with client comfort, ensuring every treatment zone flowed naturally from reception to service rooms. Our interior design focused on texture, light, and tone combining soft finishes, ambient lighting, and clean geometry to create a sense of ease and professionalism.

This project is part of our wider portfolio of design projects that prioritise tailored design solutions spaces that not only meet the functional demands of the beauty industry but elevate them into memorable, sensory experiences. The result is a space that reflects the artistry of self-care while setting a new benchmark for contemporary beauty interiors in Brisbane.

Design Overview:
The brief for Gloss Nail Lounge was to create a soft, elevated environment that mirrored the care and precision of its services. In approaching the commercial interior design for this nail salon, Rogue sought to balance functionality, brand identity, and guest experience. Every design move was intentional curved niches soften the geometry of the space, warm timber details bring natural texture, and a diffused neutral palette provides a calm, luminous backdrop for daily operations. The layout prioritises both flow and privacy, allowing seamless movement between manicure stations, pedicure lounges, and reception. Materials were chosen for durability and comfort, blending tactile finishes with subtle lighting to create a sensory atmosphere that feels both intimate and refined. The result is a space that bridges boutique hospitality with architectural discipline a nail salon designed not just to serve, but to soothe.

Design & Identity

Atmosphere:
Gloss is more than a salon it’s a sensory retreat designed to slow the pace of everyday life. The atmosphere unfolds through soft transitions, diffused lighting, and gentle acoustics that encourage calm from the moment you enter. Sculpted product displays double as art forms, while the suspended swing installation adds a touch of playfulness within the refined interior. Every curve, texture, and tone has been considered to create a seamless flow between relaxation and luxury. The result is a space that feels effortless yet intentional tonal, tactile, and quietly iconic. Each material speaks to comfort, from the matte plaster walls to the natural timber detailing that warms the neutral palette. Gloss embodies the essence of modern spatial branding: a place where design doesn’t shout, but softly resonates through experience, mood, and memory.
